Our Onsite Underwater Treadmill: HYDRO PHYSIO Canine 5

One of our standout rehabilitation tools is the HYDRO PHYSIO Canine 5 Underwater Treadmill. This state-of-the-art equipment offers a range of benefits for pets undergoing rehabilitation:

Low-Impact Exercise: The underwater treadmill provides a low-impact way for pets to exercise, ideal for post-surgical recovery or managing conditions like osteoarthritis.
Customisable Resistance: The treadmill's adjustable water levels allow us to tailor the intensity of the workout, ensuring it matches your pet's specific needs and fitness level.
Incline Feature: Our treadmill can be adjusted for incline, providing a more challenging workout to strengthen muscles and improve mobility.

Our rehabilitation therapists, under the guidance of our onsite veterinarians and animal physiotherapist, utilise the underwater treadmill as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation program designed for each individual patient. This therapeutic approach helps pets regain strength, flexibility, and mobility in a safe and controlled environment.
