Therapeutic Laser Treatment
A drug-free, non-invasive, and painless way to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and speed up your pet's natural healing process.
Advanced Healing at the Cellular Level
At Barkfield Animal Hospital, we are dedicated to offering innovative treatments that improve your pet's quality of life without always relying on heavy medication. Laser Therapy (also known as Photobiomodulation) is a state-of-the-art medical treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity. When the laser light is applied to damaged tissues, it triggers a biological response that increases circulation, reduces swelling, and releases the body's natural pain-relieving endorphins.
This therapy is an incredible tool for a wide variety of conditions. For our senior patients, it can be a life-changer for managing the chronic pain and stiffness associated with arthritis. For pets recovering from surgery or injuries, it significantly accelerates the healing of incisions and soft tissue damage. Because the treatment is completely painless—often feeling like a gentle, soothing warmth—most pets find the sessions incredibly relaxing. Whether used as a standalone treatment or as part of a multi-modal pain management plan, Laser Therapy represents our commitment to providing gentle, effective, and modern care for the pets of Cumming.
A Relaxing Path to Recovery
Eye Protection
Both the technician and your pet will wear special protective eyewear (often called "Doggles" for pets) to protect against the laser light.
Soothing Environment
The technician moves a handheld laser wand slowly over the affected area. There is no clipping of fur required.
Immediate Comfort
Most pets feel a pleasant, warm sensation. It is common for dogs and cats to lean into the treatment or even fall asleep during the session.
No Downtime
Unlike surgery or some medications, there are no side effects and no recovery time needed after a session; your pet can go right back to their day.
