A hydro treadmill is a unique piece of equipment that allows a dog to start the rehabilitation process earlier than normal since they are in a buoyant state.
Using the treadmill allows the dog to return to normal muscle strength much earlier and in a safer way. Additionally, the treadmill’s warm water helps soothe and enhance the healing process.
The use of the hydro treadmill may be combined with other types of rehabilitation therapy to maximize the healing process and speed up recovery.
Depending on your pet's specific condition and needs, at-home exercises can potentially help promote healing and progress in rehabilitation therapy.
Always consult your veterinarian and/or veterinary rehabilitation therapist about if and when at-home exercises should be a component of your pet's treatment, and which ones would be helpful to their recovery.
