What We Offer

​

🐾 Therapeutic Swims
Our therapeutic hydrotherapy sessions are designed for dogs recovering from surgery, injury, or those managing mobility issues, arthritis, or age-related changes. Warm-water swimming reduces joint strain, encourages gentle movement, and promotes circulation to aid in healing and pain management.

 

🐾 Fitness Swims
For active and working dogs—or pups that just love to swim—our fitness swims help build endurance, muscle tone, and cardiovascular health. It’s a low-impact way to keep your dog strong, agile, and full of energy, all year round.

​

What Is Canine Hydrotherapy?

​

Canine hydrotherapy is a form of low-impact, water-based therapy designed to support dogs with rehabilitation, pain management, and fitness goals. By using the natural resistance and buoyancy of warm water, hydrotherapy helps dogs move more freely and comfortably—whether they’re recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or working to stay strong and fit.

​

Hydrotherapy takes pressure off joints and allows for controlled, supported movement. This makes it ideal for both therapeutic and conditioning purposes, especially for dogs that struggle with land-based exercise.

All sessions are guided by a certified canine hydrotherapist who tailors the swim to your dog’s individual needs, goals, and ability level.

​

Conditions We Can Help With

Canine hydrotherapy is widely used by veterinarians and rehabilitation specialists to assist with a variety of health concerns. It can be beneficial for:

 

Orthopedic Conditions

  • Post-surgical rehabilitation (e.g., cruciate ligament repair, hip/elbow surgeries)

  • Arthritis and degenerative joint disease

  • Hip and elbow dysplasia

  • Fractures and soft tissue injuries

 

Neurological Conditions

  • Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD)

  • Degenerative myelopathy

  • Nerve damage and coordination issues

 

Weight Management & Fitness

  • Canine obesity and weight loss programs

  • Muscle building and toning

  • Cardiovascular conditioning

  • Senior dog mobility maintenance

  • Sport and working dog performance

 

Puppy Development & Confidence Building

  • Low-impact muscle development for growing puppies

  • Introduction to water in a safe, positive environment

  • Confidence building for anxious or nervous dogs

 

Why It Works

​

Warm water supports the body, allowing for greater mobility with less pain or strain. The resistance of the water gently builds strength, while the hydrostatic pressure promotes circulation and reduces swelling. Regular sessions can improve physical and mental wellbeing, helping your dog feel more comfortable and capable both in and out of the water.

A Note to Veterinarians

Therapeutic services such as: Hydrotherapy, Massage Therapy & Canine Conditioning are effective ways

to aid in the rehabilitation of dogs who are faced with obesity, degenerative conditions and/or

injuries, as well as those experiencing anxiety and boredom, which can significantly impact their

emotional health. However, these complimentary/supportive therapies are never in place of veterinary

care and as such, are only implemented once an assessment and referral has been completed by a

veterinarian. To improve the physical and mental well being of our client’s dogs, all of our therapy

programs are customized to the specific needs of each individual dog, and are formulated based on the

recovery plan outlined by their veterinarian.
