Improving Your Dog's Health with Hydrotherapy
During a hydrotherapy session for your dog, you can expect your pup to be supported in the pool water by a buoyancy vest or other flotation device. The water temperature and depth can be adjusted to accommodate your pup’s needs and abilities. Depending on the condition being treated, the session may involve light swimming or walking.
The session may also involve the use of special equipment, such as resistance jets, to help strengthen the muscles and improve coordination. Your pup may also receive massage-like techniques, such as stroking and kneading, to help relax the muscles and improve circulation.
At the end of the session, your pup will receive a fresh water rinse to ensure they stay clean and comfortable.
