Services : Hydrotherapy

In medical/veterinary terms, Hydrotherapy is taken to mean the treatment of disease by, or in, water. In its simplest form this could be bathing your animal using a commercially available shampoo or using a stronger, medicated wash which has been prescribed by your vet to treat a specific skin condition.

However Hydrotherapy ususally refers to exercises carried out in water such as swimming or using a watertreadmill. These can be very beneficial  as an aid to recuperation after injury.

We can provide contact details for hydrotherapy pools and watertreadmill services available locally

Some insurance companies include hydrotherapy in their cover, please check with your individual company to make sure this is the case.
