Therapy Centre 

Aqua Trainer 

The Aqua-Trainer is part of the Horse Gym 2000 range. It functions in the same way as a regular treadmill, but allows the horse to work in varying depths of water. The Aqua-Trainer can be used for both fittening and rehabilitation purposes. 

The ECB Equine Spa 

The Equine Spa functions at temperatures of between 2-4 degrees which is ideal for reducing inflammation. Aerated bubbles help to stimulate blood flow in the lower leg, which is proven to improve healing of soft tissue 

The Equine Swimming Pool 

The pool is the key feature of our therapy centre and is one of only a few located in the South of England. The pool is straight in design which promotes equal use of the horse’s muscles. 

Solarium 

Horses can enjoy sessions of up to 45 minutes in our equine solarium. The benefits of heat therapy are well documented.
