Hydrotherapy or 'water therapy' has long been known for its healing powers. Water helps the body to feel weightless and buoyant while providing a natural resistance to movement making it a perfect medium for rehabilitation and fitness training.

 

Hydrotherapy can help tone muscles, increase range of motion, ease arthritic pain, improve joint flexibility, relieve muscle spasms, decrease inflammation, facilitate low-impact exercise to support weight loss and speed recovery from injuries allowing exercise to begin sooner than on land.

​

Being in water can also improve emotional and mental health both for humans as well as animals. It can decrease anxiety and exercise therapy in warm water can remind our pet’s body that it was healthy and strong, giving them confidence to return to their normal activities.
