Does your pet suffer from chronic pain? Has a recent injury or surgery slowed your normally active companion down?
Laser therapy is a painless, non-invasive treatment that uses laser technology to stimulate the body’s natural healing and pain control response. Through this innovative technique, your loved one can enjoy decreased pain, improved mobility, and quicker recovery periods. It can be used as an independent therapy or as a complement to other treatment methods—such as medications, surgery, or physical therapy—to enhance outcomes.
Benefits of Laser Therapy
- Anti-Inflammation – decreases swelling from bruising/inflammation
- Pain relief – blocks pain by decreasing nerve sensitivity
- Accelerates tissue repair, cell growth and nerve function
- Improves circulation
- Accelerates healing and reduces scarring
- Enhances quality of life, particularly for senior pets
What can laser therapy treat?
Laser therapy can be used to address a wide variety of conditions, including:
- Arthritis
- Disc Disease
- Hip Dysplasia
- Degenerative Joint Disease
- Sprains and Strains
- Cranial Cruciate Ligament
- Dental Problems
- Chronic Pain and Inflammation
- Dermatological Conditions
- Lick Granulomas
Treatment Protocol
Because every pet is different, their response to the therapeutic laser is equally unique. Depending on your loved one’s specific condition, its severity, and a number of other determining factors, our recommended treatment strategies will vary.

Verified I had been pretty traumatized by the vet I went to about my elderly cat being sick. I looked for somewhere else to go, and my fiancé explained the situation with the staff. We got an appointment in just a few hours from our call. The staff was very warm and friendly. They knew of our previous trauma from our newly ex-vet, so they were extra considerate to make sure we and my cat were as comfortable as possible and checked in often to reassure us. We were able to turn our fear and anxiety down a bit. I felt comfortable with them handling my baby. They brought a cute pink blanket to wrap her in to take her into the back. Truly they are wonderful. I can at least say they have extended my time with the love of my life/soulmate by at least one night so far, and have her as comfortable as they can. Hopefully, they can help us have many more nights when her blood comes back. Thank You to everyone who was on staff today. It felt good to feel cared for. Definitely our new vet and have already recommended them to friends.

Verified Dr. Lloyd and the entire staff at Live Oak are absolutely wonderful. Our beloved cat was very sick with cancer and they were all so kind and helpful during such a tough time in our little girl's life. They were so patient with my many calls and questions during the course of our baby's illness and really went the extra mile for us at every opportunity. Unfortunately, our little girl didn't make it, but it was such a comfort knowing she had such good caretakers, and Dr. Lloyd was even there when the day finally came to help her cross the rainbow bridge. It's so hard finding people we can trust with our little family members, but these guys are it. I continue to be thankful for this team and would recommend them every time. It should be noted that our little girl could be very nervous around strangers and they handled her with care and patience.

Verified Dr. Lloyd and her staff are amazing!! During the scary times of the COVID-19 virus, we recently had to bring our older cat in for a necessary visit. The staff met my husband at the car and took our sweet kitty inside. We were reassured our cat was being loved and comforted in our absence through the numerous phone calls they made to us while she was inside being examined. That was yesterday. Today, Dr. Lloyd called me to discuss our cat's blood work and recommend a plan and treatment in addition to what we discussed yesterday. I couldn't be more impressed with the professionalism and personalized care we've received in a time when emotions can be so high. Dr. Lloyd and her staff care for your animals as if they were their own...and we thank you!
