Pet Cold Laser Therapy

Animal Medical Center is proud to feature pet cold laser therapy to help reduce pain and improve comfort in your animal companions.

As one of the first veterinary practices in the region to provide pet therapeutic laser treatment, we use this tool to support healing without relying solely on medication.

What is Pet Cold Laser Therapy?

Cold laser therapy, also known as therapeutic laser therapy (TLT), uses focused light energy to stimulate healing at the cellular level. This non-surgical treatment helps reduce pain, swelling, inflammation, and tissue irritation while encouraging circulation and cellular repair.

Less than 1% of veterinary practices offer therapeutic laser therapy, and Animal Medical Center was one of the first in Northeast Oklahoma to bring this technology to veterinary patients.

The treatment itself is gentle, drug-free, and relaxing for many animals. During therapy sessions, pets receive warm, soothing, penetrating light from the laser unit while the affected tissues absorb healing energy.

Skin & Surface Conditions

Therapeutic laser therapy may also help reduce harmful surface bacteria, fungi, and yeast while promoting healthier tissue repair.

What to Expect During Laser Therapy

Laser therapy sessions are typically quick, comfortable, and non-invasive.

Comfortable Treatment Sessions

During treatment, the laser device is applied to the affected area while concentrated light energy penetrates the tissues below the skin. Most pets remain calm and relaxed during sessions.

Personalized Treatment Plans

The number and frequency of treatments depend on your pet’s condition, age, and response to therapy. Some pets improve after only a few treatments, while chronic conditions may benefit from ongoing sessions.

Combined Treatment Approaches

In many cases, laser therapy works best alongside other services such as pet diagnostics and imaging, rehabilitation support, or orthopedic care.

No Sedation or Surgery Required

Laser therapy is non-invasive and generally does not require sedation, making it an excellent option for pets who may not tolerate more aggressive procedures well.
