LASER THERAPY IS NOW AVAILABLE AT SCHULHOF ANIMAL HOSPITAL !!!!
To be able to serve you well, and stay on the cutting edge of companion animal medicine,
we have recently purchased equipment for Class 4 Laser Therapy. Laser Therapy has long
been known for its usefulness in pain relief, wound healing, arthritic conditions, intervertebral
disk disease, pyotraumatic dermatitis (hot spots), post surgical pain relief and incision healing,
degenerative joint disease, lick granulomas, lacerations and abrasions, periodontal disease,
gingivitis and otitis among other things.
Studies have shown that when tissue cultures are irradiated by lasers, intra-cellular proteins -
specifically cytochrome C - absorb the energy from the laser. Photons are absorbed within the mitochondria
and the cell membrane, producing higher ATP levels and boosting DNA production, leading to an increase in
cellular health and energy. Like acupuncture, Laser Therapy reduces pain and inflammation, and stimulates
nerve regeneration, muscle relaxation, and immune system response. Class IV Laser, recently available, is
able to deliver larger doses of optimal wavelength light over a larger area for consistent treatment outcomes.
Laser therapy, like acupuncture, eases pain and actually heals without the use of pharmaceuticals and
in many cases, surgery.
We have used similar light therapy for many years on the equines at our Whimsy Brook Farm with astounding results.
Now we are able to offer this therapy to our companion animal patients in an even more effective form.
As with acupuncture, in cases of arthritis or other chronic conditions, Laser Therapy is best utilized in a series of sessions.
We are able to offer this treatment at a substantially lower cost than acupuncture. An Initial Laser Therapy Session plus
30 minute Office Call is only $115.00 as opposed to acupuncture at $123.00. A package of six Follow-Up Laser Therapy Sessions
-single condition (as a technician appointment) is only $390.00, and a package of six Follow-Up Laser Therapy Sessions - two
conditions, is only $520.00 as opposed to $578.00 for a similar acupuncture package. We also have single Laser Therapy
Sessions available for $65.00 and Post-Operative Laser Therapy for pain relief, incision healing, and post-op periodontal
care at $40.00.

New Boarding Services!
In response for your desire for more flexibility, more services, and to fit in everyone?s
pocket book, effective November 1st we have completely revamped our Pet Spa Services,
the way they are delivered, and the rates we charge. Previously, many of our services
had been lumped into a functional package with an attendant fee. You will now be
more able to pick and choose, and you will have more to pick from. However, many
of the services that were included in the ?room & board? fee are now a la carte,
and the ?room & board? charges have been lowered to reflect this. Please phone
our reception team, and they will be happy to answer any questions regarding the
new Pet Spa format.
