“From the Greek meaning “Water-Healing”
So, how does being in water heal your dog?
⦁ Swimming exercises most muscles in the anatomy simultaneously.
⦁ The weight-bearing properties of water relieves pressure on joints reducing pain and encourages a better range of joint movement.
⦁ Warm water promotes circulation which increases the rate of recovery.
⦁ The hydrostatic pressure of warm water produces an analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect.

particularly following trauma, injury, surgery or restricted exercise whilst rehabilitating.
