What is Laser Therapy?

Laser therapy has quickly become a standard for excellent medical care in both animal and human medicine. It uses a non-ionizing light source in the visible and near-infrared electromagnetic spectrum to stimulate cells to produce energy molecules and improve circulation through a process called photobiomodulation. As a result, damaged tissue receives oxygen, vital sugars, proteins, and salts while wastes are removed. Laser therapy is a non-invasive, drug-free medicine to reduce pain and inflammation and promote healing. The treatments are relatively fast and feel great!
