Hydrotherapy has been extensively used in human rehabilitation, Dipping Dogs is now able to bring these benefits to the canine world.
Hydrotherapy can be of benefit to many conditions including:
• Hip and elbow dysplasia
• Orthopedic operations: fracture repair, any joint and spinal surgery
• Degenerative joint diseases including arthritis
• Ligament and cartilage damage
• Sprains and strains
• Spinal injuries
• Obesity management programs
• Cardiovascular fitness
The buoyancy effects of water provide a weightless medium for exercise allowing dogs to exercise pre and post surgery without putting strain on their joints.
Working or racing dogs will benefit from our specially designed fitness pool. It will help to keep
them in peak physical condition and will strengthen their muscles to help prevent injuries occurring.
