Finn
27th January 2010
Finn was referred to us for hydrotherapy following surgery to repair his left cruciate ligament. On the initial session we devised a treatment programe for him and started his therapy. We worked him in the water walker for 4 minutes with a rest in the middle. We did this to help increase the muscle mass that he had lost post- surgery due to resticted exercise, enhance fitness and stamina and help improve range of movement in all 4 limbs.
After 10 sessions of hydrotherapy treatment, Finn had improved greatly. He was working for 15 minutes with 2 rests between at a speed of 2mph. His muscle mass and stamina developed fantastically meaning that he could go for longer walks. Any lameness and stiffness has almost completely gone.
Finn continues with hydrotherapy once a fortnight to maintain the progress and improvements already made. He enjoys coming and his confidence has grown greatly thoughout each session.
