REHABILITATION - FITNESS - FUN
Swimming is an excellent non weight bearing exercise that avoids the
stresses and strains of exercising on hard ground. It allows the
joints to move in a normal fashion, loosens tighteness in the muscles
and reduces pain.
For dogs, following surgery Hydrotherapy removes the weight load on
the injured limb and will enable gradual building of wasted muscle. It
reduces pain and speeds recovery.
Ageing dogs can benefit from controlled swimming as the soothing
effect of the warm water improves circulation and encourages increased
mobility in sore, stiff and arthritic joints
Swimming is also a great exercise for healthy dogs to improve
cardiovascular fitness, muscle tone and general well being.
Here at Five Valleys Hydrotherapy we have a large heated and sanitized
pool with full washing and drying facilities. Please see website for
more information regarding hydrotherapy, its benefits and conditions
that benefit.
