Underwater treadmill can be an amazing exercise modality that can provide several benefits in one session including:

  • Stretching of muscles and joints

  • Low impact strengthening

  • Gait patterning

  • Heat/massage and pain relief effects

  • Exercise endurance and body conditioning

Melbourne Veterinary Rehabilitation has an Aquatread underwater treadmill. Its two door design allows for walk through, and it can run in either direction should your pet have a preference. The belt is 2m long so we can accommodate giant breeds, and there are incline and decline functions.
