PulseVet Therapy for Pets

What is PulseVet?

PulseVet is an advanced shock wave therapy that helps accelerate healing, reduce pain, and improve mobility in pets. Using high-energy sound waves, this non-invasive treatment stimulates cells, releases growth factors, and enhances blood flow to support tissue repair and recovery.

What Conditions Can PulseVet Treat?

PulseVet is effective for a wide range of musculoskeletal and soft tissue conditions, including:

• Tendon & Ligament Injuries
• Osteoarthritis & Joint Pain
• Low Back (Non-Neurologic Lumbosacral) Disease
• Wounds & Lick Granulomas
• Fractures (Stress Fractures, Splints, Non-Unions)
• Partial CCL Tears
• Anal Gland Abscesses

This is not an exhaustive list—speak with your veterinarian to determine if PulseVet is right for your pet.

How Does PulseVet Work?

PulseVet uses high-energy sound waves to:

• Reduce inflammation and swelling
• Increase blood flow
• Stimulate bone formation and healing
• Enhance wound healing

By activating the body’s natural healing processes, PulseVet helps pets recover faster and feel their best.

PulseVet vs. Laser Therapy: What’s the Difference?

While both treatments aim to relieve pain and promote healing, there are key differences:

Feature	PulseVet (Shock Wave)	Laser Therapy
Energy Type	Sound Waves	Light Waves
Depth of Penetration	Deep tissue penetration	Surface-level penetration
Treatment Sessions	1-3 sessions for long-lasting results	10-15 sessions, with uncertain long-term effects
FDA Approved?	Yes, backed by 10+ years of research	No FDA approval for long-term healing
Risk of Burns?	No risk	Possible with improper use
Safety Precautions	No protective glasses required	Protective glasses needed

Types of Shock Wave Therapy

Not all shock wave therapies are created equal. PulseVet uses electrohydraulic technology, which delivers focused shock waves that treat larger volumes of tissue more effectively. This technology has been extensively researched and validated in both human and veterinary medicine, making it the gold standard in shock wave therapy.

What to Expect from PulseVet Treatment

How Long Does a Session Take?
PulseVet treatments are quick—usually less than five minutes per session. Most pets need only 1-3 sessions, spaced 2-3 weeks apart. Sedation is rarely required.

Treatment Process:

• Pets with thick or double coats may need a small area shaved for better contact.
• Ultrasound gel is applied to ensure effective energy transfer.
• Treatment is painless and well-tolerated by most pets.

Aftercare & Recovery:
Healing takes time. Even if your pet seems to feel better, avoid strenuous activity to allow for proper recovery. Some mild soreness may occur for 1-2 days post-treatment—your veterinarian may recommend pain management if needed.
