The Hydrotherapy Hut at Yorkshire EC - Equine Water Treadmill

✨Do you have a horse requiring surgery and box rest?
Are you concerned that they won’t settle in their usual environment?

Do they require hand walking several times a day, and you simply do not have the time? Or perhaps they are cheeky to hand walk, so walking in straight lines on the treadmill is safer and more beneficial for all involved.

🏠At The Hydrotherapy Hut we can provide care for your horse straight from surgery, working closely with your vet to ensure they follow a correct rehabilitation plan.

We are also very happy for your vet, farrier, physio, dentist to see your horse on-site at no extra cost. We also have our network of visiting specialists who we can refer you to should you need them.

Call us on 07748115588 to discuss availability and your requirements.

✨💦Did you know that regular Water Treadmill sessions can help improve your horses straightness?

Before & After: Recent Hydro LiverySuccess Story 🐴💦

Swipe to see the progress of this 17-year-old showjumping gelding after just 8 water treadmill sessions over 10 days, plus 2 earlier sessions before his holiday. His goal? To improve balance, coordination, and muscle tone after struggling with muscle atrophy and topline development.

🌟 The results speak for themselves! 🌟
As with most horses, he has a few compromising qualities, but with carefully managed hydrotherapy sessions, we made sure not to push too hard or too fast. He’s shown noticeable improvements in muscle tone and overall posture, and we’re thrilled with how he’s regaining his balance and coordination.

Water-phobic horse? Read below...

It’s a question we are asked a lot, what if my horse doesn’t like the water? Our experienced therapists will take the time to slowly introduce your horse to the treadmill, starting off dry and gradually adding the water when your horse is ready. Over a course of a few sessions, we will increase the water levels as your horse’s fitness and strength improves. It is very important to us that we don’t over-do the work on the water treadmill too soon. Plus treats, treats and more treats end up making it the best workout ever!✨

𝐃𝐢𝐝 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰?
The equine water treadmill offers a gentle yet effective form of exercise, minimising the impact on joints and tendons, which helps to lower the risk of injuries often associated with traditional high-intensity workouts on hard surfaces.

The resistance provided by the water helps in enhancing muscle strength and endurance, all while avoiding undue stress on the horse's body.

This controlled environment allows trainers to customise exercise routines to meet the specific needs of each horse, ensuring they achieve optimal fitness levels for top performance in competitions.

Additionally, the buoyancy of the water aids in the rehabilitation process from injuries, allowing horses to heal faster and return to training or competition more quickly.

Overall, the equine water treadmill is an invaluable asset for maintaining the health, fitness, and competitive edge of elite equine athletes.

💦Did you know?

The water treadmill isn’t just for competition horses or those in rehabilitation - it offers benefits for a wide range of horses and ponies!

🐴 For Horses and Ponies with EMS 🐴
Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS) affects a horse’s ability to regulate insulin, often leading to laminitis, obesity, and other health concerns.

Managing these issues requires the right balance of diet and exercise.

Exercise is key to burning calories, but it’s crucial to choose the right type. Since horses and ponies with EMS are more prone to laminitis, they need gentle, low-intensity workouts.

The water treadmill provides just that - a safe and therapeutic exercise option that doesn’t add extra stress to the body, making it an ideal part of a rehabilitation program.

When combined with proper dietary management, water treadmill sessions can support recovery and help prevent further complications.

Have you been struggling to push further in your dressage scores?

Keep seeing “Could be straighter”, “Falling through Shoulder” or “Crooked”

If these comments are something you're regularly receiving on your dressage tests and you’re not sure where to go next. Why not try our hydrotherapy?

Walking on the water treadmill increases stride length making the shoulder more free and supple.

It also improves straightness by increased gait symmetry and back strength, helps improve coordination, suppleness and cadence in the paces.
Book now to help increase those marks:

𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 ❌
We have too many recently so think a post maybe helpful too. Please remember that your horse CANNOT use the treadmill if their shoes are loose or if they have been recently shod (within 5days) and have the nail head freshly protruding.
They grip the treadmill belt too much which can affect movement and also damage the belt. Loose shoes if thrown whilst in the treadmill could also injure the horse!! Road nails or studs cannot be used either. Please remember to schedule your treadmill sessions accordingly. Or risk losing your session and a wasted trip!
Full details are available on our website.

Summer is here and we have spaces available for this weekend and into next week…
