Laser Therapy Services in Waller, TX

Reduce pain, accelerate healing.

At Neighborhood Veterinary Centers Waller, we are proud to offer laser therapy, also known as cold laser therapy, as a non-invasive, drug-free treatment option for cats and dogs. This advanced technology uses specific wavelengths of light to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and promote faster healing.

Laser Therapy Conditions

At Neighborhood Veterinary Centers, laser therapy treatment is routinely prescribed for the following conditions:

  • Arthritis pain
  • Hip and elbow dysplasia
  • Post-surgical incisions
  • Post-operative orthopedic and neurology patients
  • Soft tissue injuries, such as ligament and tendon injuries
  • Wound healing
  • Dental disease
  • Skin conditions

How Laser Therapy Works

Laser therapy must be prescribed by your veterinarian and administered by a trained veterinary technician. During the session, a handheld device is applied over the affected area. The light energy penetrates deep into the tissue, stimulating the cells to function more efficiently.

This process results in:

  • Decreased inflammation
  • Enhanced circulation and waste-product removal
  • Improved oxygenation
  • Increased joint range-of-motion
  • Endorphin release

The treatment is painless, safe, and typically takes just a few minutes. Pets, owners, and staff wear protective eyewear during the session to ensure safety from the laser beam.

How Pets Respond To Laser Therapy

Most pets find laser therapy relaxing and enjoyable. The sensation is similar to a warm, sunny day, and many dogs and cats will fall asleep or visibly relax during treatment. After a few sessions, it’s common to see improvements in mobility, mood, and energy.

Treatment Frequency

The number and frequency of sessions depend on your pet’s condition and response to therapy. Typically:

  • Chronic conditions (e.g., arthritis) may begin with 2–3 sessions per week, tapering to monthly maintenance.

  • Acute conditions (e.g., wounds or recent surgery) may require daily or bi-weekly treatments for a shorter period.

Your veterinarian will create a custom laser therapy plan tailored to your pet’s specific needs.
