Why do we use a harness or life jacket during hydrotherapy?

We get asked this question a lot, so here is an overview of the importance of harnesses and life jackets during Hydrotherapy.

Harnesses and life jackets help keep your dog safe in the water by giving us secure control and preventing slips or sudden movements, without putting any pressure on the neck.

In hydrotherapy, a harness and a life jacket serve different purposes and it is important we select the correct one for your dog. A harness is used as a handling and support tool, it allows us to guide the dog’s movement, assist with balance, and provide targeted support.

A life jacket, is used as a buoyancy and safety device. It provides support to help the dog, making it especially useful for weak swimmers, anxious dogs, puppies, or those with low endurance. Life jackets are often chosen in early sessions to build confidence or in dogs who require extra support.

If you feel that your dog would benefit from our services, please get in touch today🐾

Understanding PainTrace®

Here’s a video of what a PainTrace® appointment will look like.

Seeing Your Pet’s Pain
PainTrace® is a safe, non-invasive device that helps us understand and track your pet’s pain. Using tiny sensors on the skin, it measures the body’s natural signals when your pet feels discomfort.

This allows us to:
• See where your pet hurts – pinpointing areas of pain more accurately as shown in the video by the yellow and purple lines.
• Track improvement – by repeating the test after treatment, we can see if interventions like medication,
physiotherapy, or surgery are working.
• Plan the best care – the results help us tailor treatments and monitor progress over time.

PainTrace® gives us a clearer picture of your pet’s pain. It is particularly useful for the more stoic pets who give less pain signs or those more complicated cases.

If you are interested then please contact us.

Meet the very handsome Teddy🐾

Teddy was referred to us in July after being diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia. As part of Teddy’s rehabilitation program, he comes to us for underwater treadmill therapy, physiotherapy, laser therapy and he has also had some acupuncture with our visiting vet, James.

Our goals for Teddy are to increase his range of motion, relieve tension and increase his muscle mass.

Teddy is the sweetest boy and we can’t wait to see his progress in the coming weeks.

Well done, Teddy🌟🐾

Dilly showing us just how much she loves her Hydrotherapy sessions. Turned around for one second and she’s confidently back in the underwater treadmill ready to start all over again!🌟🐾

Dilly was referred to us after her owner noticed she was lame in her right forelimb. Previously Dilly had fractured her digit 5 on her right forelimb so her owner suspected this may have been the cause.

Dilly attends both regular Hydrotherapy and Physiotherapy appointments as part of her rehabilitation program where we aim to improve her range of motion, reduce pain and increase muscle mass.
