Laser Therapy & Pain Management

Our Wellness Approach To Healing Your Pet’s Pain

Our Laser Therapy Treatments

Franklin Veterinary Associates uses laser therapy as a form of healing on pets. The technology uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate enzymes inside damaged cells, leading to increased metabolism, increased oxygen flow to the cells, faster wound healing, and reduced pain. Our clinic promotes this method as it is an excellent treatment option for muscle and joint injuries, back pain, arthritis, and as an aid to speed healing after surgery.

Our Approach To Pet Pain Management

Chronic pain is a common condition in pets. Joint problems and issues with the back and spine are the most frequent causes. The challenge is that it can often be difficult for you to tell when pets are painful. Cats and dogs will often get quiet, calmer, and less interactive with you when they are in pain. You may also notice your pet limping, moving more slowly, or yelping unexpectedly. You may think dogs and cats slow down as they age, but often this is caused by joint or back pain. Our doctors can help you determine if your pet is in pain. More importantly, we can discuss tests such as digital x-rays to determine why your pet is suffering and how we can help.
