Bringing
The Sea To You
Research suggests hydrotherapy treatment increases fitness
and general well-being as well as proving very beneficial
for many equine injuries. This treatment is growing in popularity
as results prove that horses with injuries recuperate and
recover more quickly using salt water hydrotherapy treatment.
Research also shows that hydrotherapy treatment not only promotes
healing but can also aid in the prevention of injury.
A proven method of treating many equine ailments
and injuries, the Horse Spas UK hydrotherapy unit operates
at temperature levels of between 2 and 4 degrees centigrade
throughout the day agitating the treatment water using unique
spa jets.
These
jets operate
at a significantly reduced noise level to spas using ‘air
jet’ systems. The jet systems agitating the water
and creating a swirling effect around the fore and hind
legs of
the horse
providing a massaging effect on the limbs.
The spa jets draw
in air during operation producing oxygen levels within
the water which in turn aids the healing process.
Salt concentrate of 20 grams sodium chloride (salt) and
30 grams magnesium sulphate (epsom salts) roughly equates
to double that of the sea. This saline solution creates
a drawing effect on the injuries and wounds, assisting
in the healing process.
Bacteria is killed by the spa's operation
at
the low operating water temperature level.
