Hydrotherapy Four Paws
Following the Prime Minister's announcement we can confirm that our services will remain open and operational inline with subsequent government guidance. You can leave home for animal welfare such as attending veterinary services for advice and treatment. We remain committed to keeping you and the team safe. We have been established since 2010 and offer a compassionate and professional service in our large heated hydrotherapy pool situated near Wickham, Hampshire.

We are now excited to announce the installation of an underwater treadmill at the centre, this will enable us to see post surgery cases sooner and offer the best possible treatment plan. Together with our physiotherapists, hydrotherapists and your vet we will specifically tailor a programme to suit your dogs' needs and help them on the road to recovery.

Our hydrotherapists have trained at a variety of training centres including Greyfriars, K9HS & South Coast Hydrotherapy Centre and are all members of NARCH. Our physiotherapists have trained at TCAP and are members of IAAT.

Sarah studied at The College of Animal Physiotherapy and Greyfriars Rehabilitation Centre.
She is committed to continuous professional development and recently travelled to Thailand to attend an osteopathy workshop on elephants!
Sarah offers personalised treatment plans and every patient will be given a home exercise plan to follow after their initial visit to the clinic.
She enjoys working with older arthritic dogs and post cruciate surgery cases.
Lisa has a National Diploma in Animal Management and a Foundation Degree in Animal Health Studies from Sparsholt College.
The therapeutic effects of hydrotherapy date back to the Romans in 339AD (although we're fairly confident that dogs weren't included at this point!).
Our large pool is heated to 28C which relaxes muscles and combined with non weight bearing exercise provides numerous benefits to the swimmer.
Photizo light therapy is effective in treating chronic pain and inflammatory conditions associated with arthritic conditions and repetitive strain injuries.
Photizo light therapy stimulates healing, relieves pain, swelling and inflammation, reduces muscle spasms.
Our Pool is one of the largest in the South, measuring some 6 metres x 3 metres - space for your dog to really stretch out and feel the full benefits of hydrotherapy.
Our policy is to only treat one dog in the pool at any one time, thus providing full concentration and safety for the animal at all times.
The pool is fitted with two jets at one end which are air switch operated and are adjusted using the poolside mounted air mixer dials.
Our team closely monitor the use of the jets, as over-use can be counter productive.
We would ask any prospective swimmer to contact their vet, prior to commencing any programme, for a general health check and to highlight any conditions that would not benefit from hydrotherapy.
We are committed to the welfare of your dog and will not swim them without consent from your vet.
Please download the Vet's Referral Form and bring to your first session (or send in advance if possible).
We understand that you may feel anxious about your first visit to the centre.
We are happy to chat through any concerns on the phone, or you can contact us by email.
Physiotherapy can help a variety of problems including back pain, neck pain, arthritis, strains and sprains and post-operative rehabilitation.
Dogs can suffer with similar problems, which afflict humans, but they can't tell us where their pain is or if they have injured themselves, and they are often clever at hiding their discomfort.
Physiotherapy can ease the pain of dogs with a range of problems including arthritis, sprains, strains, back pain, and performance problems as well as post-operative rehabilitation.
