Aqua Therapy Barn
Aqua Therapy Barn
The Aqua-treadmill promotes muscle strengthening, will develop flexibility, and elasticity during training. The Aqua-treadmill can alter the water depth between each patient, allowing targeted rehabilitation protocols, important to address different stages of musculoskeletal injuries by increasing joint mobility, improving postural control, promoting resistance, and muscle activation, in addition to reducing inflammation. In the Aqua-treadmill the animal will be partially submerged, but always with the limbs in contact with the floor, maintaining posture (without lateral movements) and working the same muscles normally used during the mounted work, but reducing trauma and stress.
Our highly trained staff will work in conjunction with your veterinarian and/or trainer to design a program best suited to achieve fast and maximum results.
