Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy carried out by a trained professional provides a controlled and safe environment for post-surgery rehabilitation and rehabilitation for diagnosed conditions, or for the sport-specific training of canine athletes

With the support of the water, and hands-on assistance from a qualified team, corrective movement patterns can be gently resumed improving muscle function and increasing range of motion whilst the therapeutic qualities of the water help reduce swelling.

Specific joints and muscle groups can be targeted for tailor-made rehabilitation, and varying depths of water, with increasing or decreasing speed, can make the session easy or, for the cross training athlete, more of a challenge.
