🚿🐾 We take our water management seriously. This is why a few years ago we opted for Bromine over Chlorine as our water sanitiser. Don’t get me wrong, Chlorine is fine and safe. However Bromine has a few advantages 🐶💧
Here’s why bromine is better for your dog:
💦Gentle on skin and eyes🐾Less irritation for dogs.
💦Works better in warm water🐾 Perfect for our water which heated to 32-34c
💦Doesn’t have a strong chemical smell🐾 A more pleasant environment for everyone.
💦More effective in dog-friendly conditions🐾 Bromine works even with the extra organic material from fur and oils.
💦pH stability🐾Ensures a safe, clean, and consistent environment.

Hydrotherapy for cats 😮💦🐈
Yes it’s true, we treat cats too…and they generally tolerate it much better than you would think 😏
Louis has been coming for visits to the underwater treadmill to help ease his stiffness which he suffers with since having surgery to correct a Luxating Patella.
Louis is an absolute diamond 💎 to treat. Yes it’s definitely not his favourite activity to be taking part in 😂 but he gets on with it, he just likes to tell us all how unimpressed he is walking along🙃🐈💦

Alfie started hydrotherapy following a Cruciate ligament injury, due to his age he wasn’t an ideal candidate for surgery. His lovely owners decided to try conservative management after noticing he was still struggling a few months after the original injury.
Alfie’s treatment has included Ultrasound and PEMF therapy, alongside a home programme which his owners have been really dedicated with, and the hard work has paid off 😊
You can see from the video how much more comfortable he is using his injured leg, this is now taking the extra strain and pressure of other joints which we’re having to load extra weight causing secondary issues. He has built muscle mass and strength and his pain is more controlled.
This has been achieved in 12 sessions, not doing to bad for an old dog hey 😉😂

Misty is an older lady 🖤 and really does struggle with her mobility on land.
On her first session she was very nervous. This is her during her 3rd Hydrotherapy session. You can literally feel her melt and relax into it.
Misty will get a lot of relief from being in the warm water, and the ability to move pain free must be very nice and a very welcome break!
Older dogs benefit hugely from Hydrotherapy. Your Hydrotherapist will always be in the water with them to assist in correct movement and to give support and reassurance 🐾💦

I do have a bit of a soft spot, for Spot 💙 He just loves to be loved 🥰
He suffered from an FCE and has made a remarkable recovery 🌟
His mum wasn’t so sure how he would be in the pool as he has never swam before….by the 3rd session he was off chasing his ball loving it 😃
Here he is enjoying his Pulse magnetic field therapy. He is using both the large mat and the spinal jacket to help target specific areas 👌

Ralph loves his hydrotherapy sessions 💦 He has been a regular for a while now and is on more of a maintenance programme to keep him topped up!
Now the colder months are on the way we will increase how often he comes for sessions to make sure he doesn’t decline during winter ❄️
Arthritic dogs (and cats) struggle more in winter. The cold and damp affect the joints. It’s really important you keep your dogs as warm as possible. Invest in a good dog coat for those winter walks and keep them out of cold water 🐾
If you think Hydrotherapy could help your dog or cat please get in touch 😀
Stan working very hard for his sprats 😊 This is a snippet of him being assessed in the 💦 All of our patients are continually assessed during each session. This enables us to determine how effective treatment is, and means we can adjust the plan as needed 🐕
We are also working on Stan’s posture in the video. To do this we engage his proprioception system and make small adjustments to his limb placement. Followed by low impact motor sequence exercises to engage muscles and increase limb loading to achieve a balanced stand 🐾
This will help Stan move more balanced on land as we are tapping into the muscles memory 🐾🐕💫
