Increasing the depth of the water in a treadmill has been shown to increase the mediolateral (side to side) range of motion of the pelvis in a horse as it picks its feet up and pushes through the resistance of the water. It can also increase the flexion and extension of the thoracic spinal region - that’s across the withers and the back to just behind the saddle.

Yes, depending on your policy. If you have cover for complementary therapies this would include hydrotherapy if the vet recommends it. Please check with your insurance before your visit.

We don’t need a referral letter but we do need you to check with your vet that they are happy for your horse to have hydrotherapy. If you are planning to claim back the session please check with your insurance first.

We re use as much water as we can, as we are mindful of being environmentally friendly. The water goes through a pre filtration mesh, then into a filtration tank which uses a combination of UV and charcoal to filter the water.

If any horses are particularly frightened of the net behind them and they need to poop in the water we will manually drain that down the drain to avoid very dirty water going into the tanks to be reused.
