WATER TREADMILL
Our new water treadmill is perfect for horses requiring rehabilitation as well as those who need to increase their strength and fitness
When horses walk on a treadmill in water they naturally lift their legs up higher in a more vertical plane increasing joint flexion and exaggerating the use of the back muscles – and with no rider to influence the horse's way of going the muscles develop symmetrically as the horse works in balance and without interference in a straight line

The cold water on the lower limbs also provides a massaging and cooling effect - excellent for horses recovering from leg problems.Our Activo-Med Water Treadmill has a low front end so your horse moves in a natural outline in a low-concussive environment. The support yet resistance of the water provides a controlled, supervised aerobic exercise, increasing cardiovascular activity and tightening core strength muscles whilst continuing to build and/or repair strong tendons/ligaments and bones - in combination, a highly effective full body workout.
Used equally for fitness and therapy, the benefits will be seen on dry land with an improved joint flexion, increased stride length and suppleness through the back, helping the topline. Muscle tone and strength improve dramatically and the horses really enjoy their sessions.
Training on the water treadmill can be made part of your horse's exercise routine - £40.00 per session
