Benefits of Hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy provides your pet with a gentle form of partial weight bearing exercise. This allows for unloading of painful joints and encourages muscle strengthening, preventing your pet overcompensating on healthy joints.
Conditions that will benefit from hydrotherapy include:
- Osteoarthritis
- Weight Loss
- Spondylosis
- Hip Dysplasia
- Elbow Dysplasia
- Spinal Injuries
- Cruciate Ligament Disease
- Legg-Calves-Perthes Disease
- Chronic Degenerative Radiculomyelopathy (Canine Degenerative Myelopathy)
