✨ Class IV Laser Therapy at Sidewood ✨
It's been a busy few weeks with our Class IV Laser Therapy — and it's been fantastic to see so many dogs coming through the door to benefit from this new service. 🐾 ❤️ Here, we have the gorgeous Ollie enjoying his laser treatment 💖 🥰
For anyone who may have missed our earlier introduction to laser therapy, Class IV laser uses photobiomodulation to deliver therapeutic light energy to targeted tissues, supporting the body's natural healing and recovery processes.
Depending on the individual dog and the reason for treatment, laser therapy may help to:
🐾 Reduce pain and discomfort
🐾 Support the management of inflammation
🐾 Promote circulation and tissue repair
🐾 Support recovery following injury or surgery
🐾 Ease muscle and soft-tissue tension
🐾 Support mobility and comfort
🐾 Complement other rehabilitation therapies such as Clinical Massage and Hydrotherapy
One of the things I particularly like about laser therapy is that it can be incorporated into an individualised rehabilitation or wellbeing plan, rather than being a one-size-fits-all treatment.
And for many dogs, it's a wonderfully calm experience — no sedation and no need for restraint. They can simply relax while the treatment is carried out.
At Sidewood, we're looking at the whole dog — whether they're recovering from injury, managing an ongoing condition, returning to sport, or simply needing some support to stay comfortable and mobile.
If you'd like to know whether Class IV Laser Therapy could be appropriate for your dog, I'm always happy to have a chat and explain how it works.
