HYDROTHERAPY (Underwater Treadmill)
The Aquaciser has been in use at Kendalwood Farm since 2003 and has been an integral part of the rehabilitation and condition program. Many take advantage of this tool for conditioning purposes as part of their regular training regime. Trailer-ins are welcome by appointment and are scheuled on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Vet referrals are recommended for injured horses or those returning from stall rest. PJ and Tara have taken horses fromvarious stages of injuries through the rehabilitation process with great success and enjoy seeing their clients back in the ring competing. They take great joy in bringing horses back to the competitive arena and have an extremely high success rate!
This amazing machine works on the principles of resistance and buoyancy to encourage symmetrical development of muscle with much less trauma and concussion on joints and all soft tissue. Horses work in a controlled, consistent, relaxed manner, enabling them to travel straight using each limb independently in its full range of motion while at the walk. Sessions range from 7- 30 min. with treadmill speed and water depth varying depending upon various injuries or condition levels of the animal. This is used in conjunction with your normal training regiment. It truly is a workout! You will be amazed with its results on your horse after a few short sessions. Benefits include but are not limited to: more thorough development of all muscle groups, increased fitness through respiration, faster recovery for injuries, and increased range of motion.
