The Water Treadmill is a great way to enhance suppleness, stride length, increase cardio-vascular fitness, help build muscle tone, core strength and overall wellbeing.
It gives the horse a highly effective full body workout improving general fitness, joint flexion and respiration. Depending on water level, the buoyancy of the water reduces concussion and impact on the lower limbs & encourages an increased range of motion. The high resistance of the water leads to increased muscle activity. The water pressure helps to reduce swelling & stimulate circulation of the lower limbs.
