Underwater Treadmill – Coming Soon!
AquaPaws SS is a unique underwater treadmill system specifically designed to give dogs the benefits of aquatic therapy for training and conditioning with increased cardio and muscle strengthening, rehab from injury, and general exercise for wellness and weight loss.
WHY WATER?
Hydrotherapy in an underwater treadmill uses the natural properties of water, or the principles of relative density, buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, surface tension, viscosity and resistance to achieve its therapeutic benefits in a safe environment. Exercising in water can help reduce fatigue and pressure on joints, soothe aches, and help with balance. It can also improve mobility and flexibility, allowing canines and small animals to recover from surgery or an injury quicker, and experience greater performance potential and well-being.
The AquaPaws SS underwater treadmill system is designed to improve the lives of canines and small animals by offering low-impact, high-resistance aquatic therapy or workouts for rehabilitation from injury, optimal training and conditioning, and weight loss. The AquaPaws SS provides the natural properties of water (buoyancy, resistance and hydrostatic pressure) for a rigorous cardiovascular workout with reduced impact and stress on joints with enhanced features new to the AquaPaws product line.
