Treadmill for horses: What makes a water treadmill different from traditional hand-walking or dry treadmill work?
The answer is in the science of hydrotherapy. According to research published in the Journal of Equine Veterinary Science (Melissa R. King, 2013), buoyancy and water resistance reduce joint concussion while still challenging muscle strength and stride mechanics. By combining these principles, the Treadlite Horse Aqua Treadmill allows your horse to exercise with less concussive force on joints while still engaging muscles and improving range of motion. Trainers can adjust water depth to reduce functional body weight by up to 75% at the hip level - making it an adaptable solution for both rehabilitation and cross-training.
How does an Equine Water Treadmill improve performance?
Water treadmills support rehabilitation from tendon and ligament injuries, help manage arthritis, and promote safe recovery after surgery. Horses walk with longer strides, improve posture, and have stronger hindquarters, all while enhancing cardiovascular endurance without straining the lungs or heart.
For people asking how Horse Aqua Therapy helps with recovery:
According to research and expert sources, including MadBarn, water's natural buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, and viscosity create the ideal low-impact environment. This scientifically supported setting helps reduce pain and inflammation while promoting proper movement patterns, making it perfect for horses gradually returning to exercise after injury or for performance horses needing conditioning without excess joint stress.
