When It Comes to Pain Relief, Senior Pets Need Your Help
It's hard to watch your aging pet's quality of life decline. The initial signs are subtle. It may start with a hard time getting up off the floor, or difficulty handling the stairs. The struggles can compound from there.
Therapy and drugs may help – but they often fail to get at the root of the problem.
An older dog is more likely to develop diseases such as:
- Heart disease
- Kidney disease
- Liver disease
- Cancer
- Arthritis
As dogs age, they might seem less interested in activities they used to love, like chasing a ball or walking in the park. They may find it difficult to jump onto a chair or into the car. It can also cause a dog to be depressed or irritable when you interact with them.
Laser Therapy For Pain Relief
Spot laser treatments with a wand can provide relief but if you're treating the back area, you don't want to only treat one vertebra where it hurts. You want to treat the areas where blood is backed up above it and below it. That's where a LASERwrap can provide full-body relief.
Dogs can become wobbly when they lose strength. It's difficult to watch.
The muscles are not getting the protein and the oxygen that they need, because his blood flow is restricted. An arthritic spine can cause your dog to slow down. So, the less walking he does, the less protein and oxygen to the problem area and the muscles surrounding it.
The Spectra Therapy LASERwrap can provide your aging dog with the relief they need to become active again.
