Underwater Treadmill Therapy

Aquatic Therapy decreases muscle atrophy and recovery time and provides psychological benefits to your pet

Aquatic Therapy is an excellent method of encouraging active muscle contraction and joint movement with limited weight bearing. This is especially useful for arthritic patients.

Underwater treadmills take advantage of water buoyancy to:

•    Allow active use of muscles
•    Achieve appropriate gait patterning
•    Enhance cardiovascular fitness
•    Reduce weight-bearing stresses

Incorporating rehab with appropriate surgery, medications, weight control, and analgesic modalities often results in a quicker return to function with greater levels of performance than could otherwise be achieved.
