What is Cold Laser Therapy?
A low-intensity laser or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are used in cold laser therapy to help relieve pain, stimulate and enhance cell function, and improve healing or recovery after veterinary surgery.
Several conditions, including muscle and joint pain, arthritis symptoms, and muscle spasms, have been shown to improve with the use of laser therapy.
