Pet Laser Therapy
If your pet is recovering from surgery, managing chronic pain, or struggling with reduced mobility, Pet Laser Therapy may offer gentle, effective relief. At West Shore Animal Hospital in Denver, NC, we provide non-invasive laser therapy designed to reduce pain, speed healing, and improve your pet’s comfort—without surgery or medication side effects.
Why Pet Laser Therapy Matters
Pain and inflammation can significantly affect your pet’s quality of life, limiting movement, slowing recovery, and reducing overall comfort. Laser therapy supports the body’s natural healing process by improving circulation, decreasing inflammation, and stimulating tissue repair. This makes it an excellent option for pets who need pain relief, faster recovery, or additional support alongside other treatments.
Laser therapy is especially valuable for pets who cannot tolerate certain medications or who benefit from a drug-free approach to pain management.
What to Expect During a Pet Laser Therapy Visit
Laser therapy sessions are calm, comfortable, and stress-free for most pets. During your visit, you can expect:
- Initial Assessment: Our veterinary team evaluates your pet’s condition, medical history, and treatment goals.
- Customized Treatment Plan: We determine the frequency and duration of sessions based on your pet’s needs.
- Comfortable Treatment Sessions: The laser is applied directly to the affected area; most pets find the warmth soothing and relaxing.
- Ongoing Monitoring: We track your pet’s response and adjust therapy as needed for the best results.
Laser therapy is often used alongside pet surgery, pet diagnostics, and routine pet wellness care to support comprehensive healing.

- Increase blood flow
- Decrease pain signals

The treatment is non-invasive, painless, and does not require sedation, making it safe for pets of all ages and life stages.
