So, what exactly is Hydrotherapy?

Hydrotherapy is a carefully orchestrated blend of controlled aquatic exercises and techniques conducted in warm water. It offers a unique advantage by enabling movement without the stresses and pressures associated with land-based exercises. Repetitive movements on land can potentially harm or weaken the skeletal and muscular systems. In contrast, hydrotherapy empowers our dedicated hydrotherapists to guide your dog through a tailored treatment regimen that enhances movement and function, all while harnessing the therapeutic properties of water.

With water temperature maintained at a soothing 32c hydrotherapy delivers pain relief and improved blood circulation. This warmth helps muscles relax and alleviates stiffness within joints and muscles, facilitating:

  • Pain relief.
  • Reduction in swelling and stiffness.
  • Circulatory enhancements.
  • Improved cardiovascular health.
  • Increased muscle strength and tone.
  • Enhanced movement and function.
  • Heightened mental well-being.
  • Improved gait patterns.

At Willow’s, we are committed to helping your pets achieve their best possible quality of life, and we invite you to join us on this journey towards better health and vitality.
