Why should you continue laser therapy with your dog at a maintenance level? ⚡️
The dog in the video (Ivy) has weekly hydrotherapy sessions and has also had a couple of courses of laser therapy in the past. As I'm sure most hydrotherapists, physiotherapists, vets and vet nurses will agree, we don't always listen to the advice we give out when it comes to our own pets! 🙈
Ivy is prone to inflammation and tension/ spasm in her back because she has hip dysplasia and loves frolicking in fields like an idiot.
Unfortunately she often has notable flare ups and this video shows the laser targeting the inflamed area of her back, which is uncomfortable for her to start and then eases off.
If we kept her laser sessions at a maintenance level we would probably avoid any inflammatory flare ups so that is what we will strive to do and I encourage everyone else to do the same so we don't have set backs like Ivy does 💛
