Pet Laser Therapy at Mid North Animal Hospital in Chicago, IL
Mid North Animal Hospital offers laser therapy as one option for helping manage pain and inflammation in pets. Our veterinary team will assess your pet and explain whether it may be useful as part of their care plan.
What is laser therapy?
Therapeutic laser treatment uses light energy and does not involve a surgical incision. It is different from laser surgery. The treatment plan, number of sessions and expected response depend on your pet’s condition.
When might it be considered?
Your veterinarian may discuss laser therapy for conditions such as arthritis, certain injuries or recovery after a procedure. It may be combined with other treatments. The benefits and limitations vary, so an examination is the starting point for deciding whether it is appropriate.
What should I know about safety?
Laser therapy requires appropriate equipment settings and safety precautions. Your veterinarian can discuss suitability, eye protection and any precautions that apply to your pet. Tell the team about your pet’s medical history and current treatments before a session.
