KEY BENEFITS

4 ways hydrotherapy actually helps

Helping Vets & Patients

Partnering with vets for post-surgery rehabilitation, the ‘hydrostatic pressure’ helps to relieve swelling & painful joints.

Safe & Steady

Water provides buoyancy, relieving the impact on joints & the musculoskeletal system. This allows muscle tone to be built without risking injury.

Arthritis Management

Perfect for maintaining muscle tone, relieving swelling & joint pain for arthritic & older dogs.

Efficient, Safe Weight-loss

A dog-equivalent of safe high-resistance, low impact interval training, without the jarring effects of regular exercise.

Success stories

Since 2018, we're proud our rehabilitation patients' roads to recovery with us. Here are their stories!

Cruciate Ligament Rehabilitation with Monti

After surgery, Monti would just carry the leg around in the air and get around on 3 legs and not her usual happy, cheeky self.
