Laser Therapy

As the only practice in Central Scotland with this Class IV laser therapy unit, we are very pleased and excited to be able to offer the treatment to our own patients and to non-patients from other practices on a referral basis. We have seen fantastic results in a vast range of different issues from osteoarthritis to non-healing wounds.
Laser therapy is a surgery free, drug free treatment which works to speed healing and recovery post op, reduce inflammation and reduce pain. It is non-invasive and, as such, is very well tolerated by our patients. Laser Therapy can be used to treat a number of conditions such as:

  • Osteoarthritis
  • Inflammation
  • Open or Non-Healing Wounds
  • Otitis
  • Skin complaints
  • Cystitis
  • Gingivitis

    ... And many more.

Cats tolerate laser treatment very well. It can be used to treat urinary issues. In addition, the skin-contact head is particularly enjoyed by animals with muscle pain as it is ike a relaxing heat massage

Gorgeous Finn, who inspired us to invest in our Laser.
" Our 7 year old greyhound Ruben had a nasty cut under his front leg, it had been stitched 3 times under general anaesthetic but because of where it was these kept breaking down. We were told by our old vet that he would need a major skin graft operation, but at his age we wanted to avoid that if possible. Unhappy with the advice we were given, we approached Animal Tails and that's where we were introduced to the notion of laser therapy. Rather than putting Ruben through any more anaesthetic or invasive procedures he began getting laser therapy on the wound every couple of days. The result was amazing. He loved going to the practice to see everyone and stood quite calmly getting cuddles while the laser works its magic. The wound healed in a matter of weeks without the need for more stitches and there is barely a scar left. At one point we had thought it would never heal, I'm so glad we changed vets and discovered what laser therapy can do. The staff at Animal Tails are wonderful and both our dogs love going to see them, in fact I've never known dogs to be so happy going to the vet!" - Ms Jacqueline Brown
