Dog Laser Therapy for Dogs at Country Club Animal Clinic

Posted on 2011-08-27 16:19:59

husky_puppy_vet_med.jpgLaser therapy for dogs is one of the state-of-the-art services available at our high-tech animal hospital performed by veterinarian Dr. Lillian Roberts and veterinarian Dr. Susan Powell. This treatment method has been successful in treating many canine health conditions at our veterinary hospital with arthritis being the most common. As an alternative to dog surgery, our Palm Desert animal clinic uses laser therapy to treat conditions such as back pain, inter-vertebral disc disease, wounds, degenerative joint disease and trauma to the muscles, skin and bone.

Other pet medical ailments are helped with laser therapy, too. If your dog is having ear problems, nasal problems, bladder problems, hot spots or lick granulomas, bring the animal into our vet hospital to see if laser therapy can help. We now treat some pet dental conditions, including gingivitis, growths and inflammation with laser therapy. Some health conditions can be rectified in one session while others may need a series of session to clear the condition.

What is Laser Therapy?

Although dog laser therapy is an advanced technological procedure, it is actually a fairly simple concept. A laser beam of invisible light is sent into cells and absorbed where it results in increased blood circulation and cell stimulation. The light absorption process is known as photo-biotherapy and improves the health and function of the dog's cells.
Depending on your pet's condition, we will use either pulsed or continuous lasers. While pulsed lasers work best to relieve pain, continuous lasers work best on fluid build-up and inflammation. Continuous lasers stimulate blood and lymphatic circulation, which results in fast fluid re-absorption. On the other hand, pulsed lasers have the ability to override a pain impulse transmission to the brain.

Our Palm Desert animal hospital's knowledgeable, well-trained and compassionate staff can answer your questions about laser therapy or any of our other comprehensive pet services we offer in to pets in Rancho Mirage, Indio and Indian Wells.

Do you have any further questions about laser therapy for dogs? Has your dog ever received laser therapy treatments?

Our Palm Desert Vet Clinic Keeps You in the Loop
With Our New Blog

Palm Desert Veterinarian provides cat careWelcome to our new blog feature! Our veterinarian in Palm Desert, Country Club Animal Clinic, has decided to add this blog to our site as a way to connect with our clients and keep you up to date on everything here at the clinic. We understand that your pets are family to you because we are pet lovers too -- it's why we do what we do. Our vet clinic serves the Palm Desert, Indio, Rancho Mirage, and Indian Wells areas, and we are pleased to provide any care your animal needs, from dog surgery to pet dental care to any animal hospital services.

We Have A Veterinary Hospital and Vet Clinic Pets Enjoy Visiting!

We know that past trips to another animal hospital or veterinarian may have been a stressful experience for your animal. Here at Country Club Animal Clinic, we want to live up to our name -- Pets may just feel like they are at a pet version of a country club. We have non-skid rubber flooring, making it easy for dogs to tread into our offices with confidence. Our exam tables Veterinarian in Palm Desert provides dog care and cat careare not only cushioned for pet comfort, but they are also the "walk on" type -- pets can simply step onto the exam table rather than having to undergo any stress that could arise from being lifted up.

Since cats may often get anxious when away from the home, especially when around other pets like dogs, we have two dedicated cats-only exam rooms where no other animal scents will be found. We regularly infuse the cat rooms with the Feliway cat-calming pheromone, a scent only detectable by cats, to further enhance the relaxation levels of your cat or kitten.Every exam we perform here at our veterinary hospital will be done with the utmost care and attention to your pet.

In future editions of the blog, we will be talking more about the different procedures we do here, how you can keep your pet safe in the home, pet training tips, and much more.

Do you have a suggestion for a future blog topic? Please let us know in the comment box!
