Pet Laser Therapy in Eagle River, Alaska
Non-invasive pain relief and healing support for pets of all ages.
Advanced Pain Management & Healing Through Laser Therapy
At Ravenwood Veterinary Clinic, we are committed to offering the most effective and compassionate treatments to improve your pet’s quality of life. Pet laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses light energy to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and accelerate healing. It’s an ideal option for managing chronic conditions like arthritis, speeding up post-surgical recovery, and relieving discomfort from acute injuries.
Whether your pet is a senior dog struggling with mobility or a cat recovering from surgery, laser therapy can be a gentle and effective part of their wellness plan.
What Is Pet Laser Therapy?
Laser therapy—also known as cold laser therapy or photobiomodulation—involves directing specific wavelengths of light into affected tissues. The light energy stimulates cellular activity, increases circulation, and reduces inflammation, which together promote healing and ease discomfort.
This non-surgical treatment is painless, stress-free, and typically takes only a few minutes per session. Many pets begin to show signs of improvement after just a few treatments.
Conditions Treated with Laser Therapy
This procedure is used to treat a wide range of conditions, including:
- Arthritis and joint pain
- Post-operative incision healing
- Soft tissue injuries and sprains
- Hip dysplasia
- Ear infections
- Lick granulomas
- Wounds and surgical incisions
- Chronic inflammatory conditions
Because it’s drug-free and non-invasive, laser therapy is an excellent option for pets that are not candidates for medication-based treatments or who require ongoing support for chronic issues.
How the Process Works
At Ravenwood, every laser therapy session is customized to your pet’s needs. The process typically includes:
- Initial evaluation by one of our veterinarians to determine if laser therapy is appropriate
- A series of short treatment sessions, with each lasting 5 to 15 minutes, depending on the condition being treated
- No sedation required—pets remain awake and comfortable throughout
- Progress monitoring and adjustments as needed to maximize healing and results
Most treatment plans include multiple sessions scheduled over several weeks for optimal results.
Is Laser Therapy Right for Your Pet?
Laser therapy is suitable for dogs, cats, and even exotic species experiencing pain or delayed healing. It can be used alone or alongside other treatments to support faster recovery and better comfort.
If your pet is showing signs of pain, stiffness, or poor healing, we encourage you to contact us for a consultation to determine if laser therapy could help.
