The team at Brookside wants to make sure that your pet stays pain-free. This is why we offer Laser Therapy. Laser Therapy helps increase circulation, blood flow, and can help decrease the need for medications and help with arthritis. We offer individual sessions specifically tapered to your pets needs.
Veterinary Laser Therapy
Veterinary laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses light energy to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and speed up healing. Whether your pet is recovering from surgery, struggling with arthritis, or dealing with an injury, laser therapy can help them feel better—faster.
What Is Laser Therapy?
Laser therapy (also called photobiomodulation) uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate your pet’s cells at a deep level. This process helps increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and accelerate the body’s natural healing response.
The treatment is painless, requires no sedation, and is well tolerated by most pets—many even find it relaxing.
How It Helps Your Pet
Laser therapy works at the cellular level to:
- Reduce pain and discomfort
- Decrease inflammation and swelling
- Improve circulation
- Speed tissue repair and wound healing
- Restore mobility and function
This makes it an excellent option for both acute injuries and chronic conditions.

The number of treatments depends on your pet’s condition. Some pets improve after just a few sessions, while chronic conditions may benefit from ongoing care.
