Our Complementary Therapy Options for Cats
Class IV Laser Therapy
Therapeutic laser uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain without drugs or needles. It's painless, non-invasive, and most cats tolerate it very well. We use laser therapy for cats with:
- Osteoarthritis and degenerative joint diseas
- Post-surgical wound healing
- Soft tissue injuries and muscle pain
- Dental and oral soft tissue conditions
- Skin infections and wound healing
- Intervertebral disc disease
Solensia (Frunevetmab) — FDA-Approved OA Treatment
Solensia is the first FDA-approved treatment specifically for feline osteoarthritis pain. It's a monthly injectable monoclonal antibody that targets Nerve Growth Factor, the molecule responsible for driving OA pain signals. Clinical studies demonstrated significant improvement in pain scores and owner-reported activity in cats receiving Solensia — with an excellent safety profile. Many clients notice meaningful improvement within the first month.
Allergy Management & Immunotherapy
Feline allergies — whether environmental, food-related, or flea-triggered — are a leading cause of chronic skin and ear problems in cats. We provide comprehensive allergy workups and can develop allergen-specific immunotherapy programs to address the root cause rather than just managing flare-ups symptomatically.
Nutritional Therapy
Therapeutic diets play a meaningful role in managing feline chronic conditions including kidney disease, diabetes, urinary disease, hyperthyroidism, and arthritis. We provide evidence-based nutritional counseling and prescription diet recommendations as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.
