The Q1000™ laser therapy device contains state of the art medical laser technology that allows the doctors and staff at Boulder’s Natural Animal to treat your animal with the energy of light. LLLT has been around for years, but in the last 10 research studies, clinical trials, and hours and hours of clinical results have helped prove that this non-invasive therapy can help a number of different conditions.

The Q1000™ has three treatment probes. It has a 606 Hz red laser probe that can be used to treat acupuncture points just as a needle would. This red laser probe can also be used directly on wounds to improve the rate of healing. This frequency of laser has also been used to treat inflamed ears and gingiva (gums).

The 840 Hz probe generates a far-infrared wavelength that penetrates deeply into tissue and has an affinity for connective tissue, tendons and ligaments. We use this probe to treat ligamentous or tendinous injuries and chronic inflammation. It also works very well post surgically to help scar tissue to resolve.

The Q1000™ also has a 16 LED/Laser array that pulses at a variety of different frequencies simultaneously. Each mode has a different frequency pulsation designed to address specific conditions. For instance, Mode 1 is for pain, inflammation, and muscle spasms. Mode 2 helps to normalize and invigorate nervous tissue as well as the heart muscle. Mode 2 is for degenerative myelopathy, spinal stenosis, Disc disease, Cauda Equina syndrome, epilepsy, cardiovascular diseases and vestibular syndrome. Mode 3 is used to help organs to function better. Mode 3 is used for liver and kidney disease, adrenal and thyroid disease, as well as for bladder and prostate problems.

When you schedule an appointment at Boulder’s Natural Animal for your pet for a condition that the Q1000™ can address, the veterinarians will first evaluate your animal for suitability of use. Not all animals will necessarily benefit from this therapy. If it is decided that this is an appropriate therapy, then a treatment program will be formulated to include regular visits for LLLT (Low Level Laser Therapy).

Sessions typically take no more than 30 minutes, and once the veterinarian is satisfied that this therapy is effective, and have discovered which areas are best to treat in your pet, they can instruct the nurses at Boulder’s Natural Animal to continue to administer these treatments as outpatient therapy. Nurse administered therapy sessions that are  priced lower than the therapies that are administered by the veterinarian, making the treatment more cost effective for those patients who benefit from and will need ongoing long term Laser therapy
