Hydrotherapy; We have 2 top of the range brand new hydro-physio under water treadmills with extended length chambers and incline options at our centre suitable for all breeds and sizes. Canine Hydrotherapy is used in the treatment of osteoarthritis, orthopaedic conditions, neurological conditions, muscle, ligament and other soft tissue injuries. It can also help with general convalescence, improve general fitness, cardiovascular stamina, muscle tone and is also helpful in aiding recovery from injury or surgery. Muscle wastage begins within 3 days of any immobilisation so to prevent further weakness or injury it is important to rebuild, through safe exercise, any muscles that have deteriorated. It is better to swim/walk dogs in heated water since cold water causes constriction of the blood vessels near the skin and to the superficial muscles (those just under the skin) which restricts the flow of blood making the muscles less efficient. Hydrotherapy is also considered to be a natural anti-inflammatory through its ability to reduce tissue swelling.

Stance Analysis; We use our stance analysis system to assess and quantify our patients weight loading through each limb and use this to benchmark and monitor progress over time or to monitor early detection of potential lameness with referral back to your primary care veterinarian. This can help us validate our treatment plans to our clients and eliminates subjective interpretation.
