Hydrotherapy in an Underwater Treadmill
Special properties of the water (buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, thermal effect) create an unique and safe environment for the rehabilitation of patients after injuries / operations of the musculoskeletal system, neurological patients, older dogs and dogs with chronic diseases in which the movement is difficult or painful. Regular exercise in the water improves cardiovascular endurance and strengthens the muscles, and is therefore an excellent addition for maintaining the condition of healthy dogs, overweight dogs and as fitness preparation for sporting and working dogs.
