Laser Therapy

Non-invasive laser therapy helps reduce pain, speed healing, and improve mobility for pets of all ages.

Laser Therapy: Gentle Healing for Pain Relief and Recovery

When your pet is in pain, every step, stretch, or jump can be a struggle. Laser therapy offers a safe, non-invasive, and drug-free way to reduce pain, speed healing, and improve your pet’s quality of life—whether they’re recovering from surgery or managing a chronic condition.

What Is Laser Therapy?

Laser therapy uses low-level light energy to stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and enhance circulation. The process—called photobiomodulation—helps the body heal naturally without medication or sedation.

It’s a gentle, painless procedure, and many pets find it relaxing!

What Conditions Can It Help?

Laser therapy is commonly used to treat:

  • Arthritis and joint pain

  • Post-surgical incisions

  • Back or neck injuries

  • Wounds or skin conditions

  • Ear infections or lick granulomas

  • Muscle strains or sprains

Whether your pet is recovering from surgery or living with chronic discomfort, laser therapy may help them feel better faster.

What to Expect During a Session

Laser treatments are quick—typically 10 to 20 minutes—and completely stress-free. During your pet’s session:

  1. A trained technician will apply the handheld laser wand directly to the affected area.

  2. Your pet will feel a gentle warming sensation (many find it soothing).

  3. There is no need for sedation or recovery time.

Most pets experience improved mobility or pain relief within a few sessions, though treatment frequency depends on the condition being treated.

Is It Safe?

Yes. Laser therapy is FDA-approved and backed by years of veterinary research. It’s especially helpful for senior pets or those who can’t tolerate medications. We’ll tailor the treatment plan to your pet’s needs, and it can be safely combined with other therapies like medication or surgery.


Whether your pet is healing from an injury or managing age-related pain, laser therapy offers a simple and effective way to support their recovery and comfort, without side effects.

Royer Veterinary Services FAQs

There is no question too big or too small for our veterinary team.

If you are checking in more than one pet, each pet will need to be signed in individually.

We try to take patients in the order they are checked in but they are also triaged by a three tier system, with priority 1 patients always seen first. Once you check your pet in we will triage them based on the symptoms provided and contact you with an estimated wait time. If you believe your pet is experiencing a life threatening situation, please call us immediately. Priority 1: May survive if life-saving measures are applied. Examples: poisoning, collapse, bloat (GDV), actively seizures, allergic reactions, traffic accident, difficulty breathing, urinary tract blockage, and heat stroke. Priority 2: Likely to survive if care is given within hours. Examples: closed fractures, diarrhea, actively vomiting, bowel obstruction, and urinary tract infections. Priority 3: Non-life-threatening conditions. Examples: skin conditions, lameness, abscess, minor wounds, sore eyes/ears, and chronic diseases.

We understand it can be confusing when your pet is sick if they need to be rushed into the hospital or not, so we always encourage you to call us at the hospital and we are always happy to answer your questions.
