Class IV Laser in town!!

**Samba** · 03-31-2011, 09:33 AM

I know people in larger places probably have access to this modality. We unfortunately live 100 miles from any large city. My vet here in town has purchased a Class IV laser!! He has already gotten some great results from it in his large animal practice.

Samba is getting arthritic and I am anxious to get to see if she can get any relief with this treatment.

Little article about the laser treatment...

I'm using a portable laser right now on Luna for her ACL tear. It does seem to be helping! I have heard good things about laser therapy.

Let us know how it goes! My vet has one and she's used it on several of my pets for soreness/arthritis, incisions, lesions (rodent ulcers and lick sores on my allergy-prone cat) etc...
