The Benefits:
1 Changing the water level on the underwater treadmill promotes the proper resistance for specific joints or muscle groups.
2 The high visibility design of the under water treadmill offers outstanding viewing from every angle making it easier to watch the patients progress whilst using the treadmill.
3 Buoyancy reduces relative body weight of the patient, minimising concussive forces on the limbs and joints.
4 Training in the water is very effective in building up cardiovascular strength and endurance.
5 Hydrostatic pressure provides constant pressure to an area or limb for decreasing swelling and edema.
6 The unique walk through design removed the need to turn the patient around within the chamber after each session.
7 Radio Control Operation
Options Available:
Poolside Operation: With a poolside installation, the reservoir, heater and filter of the underwater treadmill are not required. The water temperature can only be adjusted by the pool control system. Works brilliantly with the K9Surf Medium Business Pool Package.
Ramp Incline: The incline specifically targets different muscle groups, the hip, hock and lower spine.Inclining the treadmill can be used to alter weight distribution during exercise which can be beneficial during rehab or conditioning.
Chiller Tank: Chilledwater is specifically used for racing dogs such as Greyhounds. Immersing high performance breeds in chilled water following intense exercise can reduce the risk of injury and improve recovery time.
Resistance Jets: Resistance jets are used to increase the workload of a patient. The animal runs or walks against the current jets increasing exercise intensity.
