HYDROTHERAPY
What is Hydrotherapy?
Hydrotherapy is a type of physiotherapy using water. The water's buoyancy, resistance, pressure & warmth enable dogs to exercise with low impact & low weight bearing on the joints, to enhance strength, mobility, coordination & overall fitness. Hydrotherapy can benefit dogs recovering from surgery or injuries, help manage arthritis, pain & swelling, as well as aiding weight loss.
Pool Based Swimming
Our purpose built canine pool is a warm 28 degrees, spacious, easily accessible via a ramp & has jets for increasing resistance. Dogs are always accompanied by a physio in the water & wear a buoyancy jacket or harness. PH & Chlorine levels are tested and adjusted daily to keep the water clean & safe. Showering & fresh towels are offered to all dogs after their session.
Underwater Treadmill
Our state of the art underwater treadmill allows water depth, speed & incline to be individually adjusted. This allows for very specific & controlled rehabilitation to help dogs get back their normal movement patterns (gait). Ideal for nervous dogs that may be reluctant or unable to swim. Great for after surgery or recent injuries, when gradual & gentle rehab is needed.
