The use of water to aid healing is an idea that was used by the Romans and Greeks. From this hydrotherapy has been developed and used for many years to benefit people with arthritis and muscle pain. This idea has now progressed to be made available to our canine friends.

 

Dogs can get all the usual benefits of exercise, the improvement of muscle tone, cardiovascular fitness, improved circulation, weight management and fun. Without putting pressure on limbs and joints that may be weakened or damaged.

When dogs are diagnosed with joint or limb problems it is often hard to control their level of exercise and stop them running around at home, especially in younger dogs. Hydrotherapy gives them the chance to release some of their energy without risking sudden twist, stops or falls that could cause further damage.
