When water is used as a therapeutic tool. Its main effects include heat, hydrostatic pressure, circulatory effects, and relief of strain. Hydropathic treatments affect the functioning of almost every organ.
Hydrocade
Thanks to the buoyancy of the water, the weight of the animal is reduced to 1/10 of its weight, so we can develop the animal's muscles and increase its joint range of motion in a joint-friendly way and all animals can be conditioned in it.
It offers a unique opportunity for overweight, elderly or arthritic animals, but also for animals with coordination problems, neurological disorders or who have undergone orthopaedic surgery.
Thanks to the weight loss due to the water, the bath can often put weight on limbs that would not be able to bear weight on land, and is also of great benefit for neurological patients.
It is easier for paralysed animals to stand up underwater and later to start walking on the treadmill, so hydrotherapy is crucial to their recovery.
It is also a great supplementary treatment for sporting dogs, because walking or running in the water works muscles that are not or only slightly used during exercise on land.
During the therapy we can change the speed, temperature and water level of the treadmill according to the condition of the dog and the goal of the therapy.
In the bath, in addition to the treadmill treatment, you can also do passive movement, massage and other physiotherapy.
