Laser Therapy

Fox Valley Veterinary Service is proud to offer MLS Laser Therapy as an effective, proven, pain free treatment option for our clients who want to ease their pet's pain and inflammation. This comfortable, safe therapy uses specific wavelengths of light that quickly reduce inflammation and swelling in the tissues that are exposed to the laser.

Rapid resolution of swollen areas
Immediate improvement of local blood circulation

How Laser Therapy Works

Photons of laser energy penetrate deeply into tissue and accelerate cellular reproduction and growth. As a result of exposure to the MLS Laser, the cells of tendons, ligaments and muscles repair themselves faster. As inflammation is reduced, pain subsides very quickly.

Unlike some pharmacological solutions, there are no known negative side effects and will not compromise the liver. Most patients see positive results in one to three treatments. Swelling is greatly reduced and there is rapid relief of pain. Acute conditions subside quickly, typically within one set of treatments. Chronic conditions can be controlled with regular treatments.

In simple terms, laser energy kick-starts the healing process, thereby speeding recovery.

Conditions treated with MLS Laser Therapy:

Arthritis Pain
Hip Dysplasia
Tendonitis
Post-Op & Wound Healing
Inflamed Ears
Lick Granuloma
Disc Disease
Joint & Hock Pain
Lameness
Anal Gland Disease
Sinusitis
And much more!

Good News Update!

We are open to the public.

Masks will not be required but are encouraged.
If you do not have one, and wish to wear one, we will provide a disposable one to wear while here.
Our remote check in will continue. In order to avoid too many people being too close together in the reception area, we will ask you to call from your car to check in with us when you are here, and wait there until we inform you that an exam room is available.
Please limit the number of family members who enter the building with your pet/pets. In order to keep the number of people in the building to a minimum, fewer people will be allowed to enter the building with your pet/pets.
You do not have to enter the building, if you feel more comfortable staying in your car. If you are an at-risk person (due to health concerns or non-vaccinated status) and do not feel it is safe for you to come in with your pet even if you are masked, we will be happy to continue our current curbside service - simply let us know when you call in to announce your arrival.
Clients will not enter the building to pick up medication/food. We will deliver it to your car. If you have medication refills or need to pick up pet food or other supplies, please call in advance so that we can have you all checked out and ready for a quick pick-up by the time you arrive. Then, please call into the clinic when you get here and we will bring your items out to your car.
For your safety and ours, we ask that these new rules be followed by everyone - no exceptions.
We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to those of you who have been so understanding throughout this pandemic and the changes it has forced upon all of us. We are grateful to have made it through the (hopefully) worst of it together, while still being able to provide your pets with much-needed care. We appreciate each and every one of you who entrust us with your beloved pets' healthcare, and we are so very happy and excited to be able to see you all again in person!
