UFVMC article

Narda G. Robinson DO, DVM, MS, FAAMA of Veterinary Practice News describes how Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) helps reduce inflammation and enables rapid post IVDD See Article.

Laser therapy mitigates neurotrauma through four mechanisms:

  • Prevention of degeneration of motor neurons.
  • Higher metabolism within nerve cells.
  • Proliferation of astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, promoting myelinization of nerves.
  • Increased axonal regeneration.
