Class IV Laser Therapy

11.25.2014

The Seville Wadsworth Veterinary Clinic is excited to announce that we recently completed the purchase of a laser therapy unit.  We unit that we selected is one of the top of the line therapy lasers available within the veterinary community.  We are thrilled to be adding this new tool into our capabilities to better serve our patients and their families.

Here is a little about the Class IV Laser:

Laser therapy is a device that generate infrared light and delivers it to the tissues.  Once the light penetrates the tissue, it has a wide range of effects to stimulate healing.  Perhaps the best part is that the laser is non-invasive. This means that your pet will experience no pain during the process.  In fact, many vets report that their patients come to enjoy their therapy sessions in cases where the laser is used over multiple sessions.

Conditions Treated:

  1. Skin wounds
  2. Skin infections
  3. Lick Granulomas
  4. Inflamed ears
  5. Infected ear canals
  6. Arthritis
  7. Intervertebral Disc Disease (bad backs)
  8. Tendon injuries
  9. Ligament damage
  10. Broken bones (facilitates faster healing)
  11. Post-surgical wounds
  12. Many, Many more

How does it work?

  • The laser light penetrates through body tissue to increase the rate of blood flow.  This results in better nutrition to the tissue, as well as faster removal of "bad stuff."
  • The laser causes the vessels to dilate, or open up.  This also allows more blood to flow by the area that is being treated. 
  • The laser stimulates the Red Blood Cells to release hemoglobin at an increased rate.  Hemoglobin is the portion of the blood that actually carries the oxygen to the tissues
  • The laser light stimulates better lymphatic drainage by opening up the lymphatic vessels.  This is kind of like the sewer system of the body, which means that toxins and other harmful substances are taken away from the damaged area and eventually eliminated from the body.
  • The laser light stimulates increase ATP production within the mitochondria of the cells.  What this means is more energy to promote faster healing.
  • The laser light helps affect the nerves, resulting in a decreased pain sensation

We eagerly await the arrival of our laser unit and look forward to seeing the impact that it will have in improving the lives of our patients.
