Hi, has anyone any experience of using an Aqua Treadmill? Was it useful for your horse and do you use it for rehab or part of your general training program? Many thanks in advance
Haven't used one personally for my horses but know people that have and they really rate it.
However I have been told to be cautious of using them routinely for eventers (unless for rehab) because it can affect the way they tackle water jumps - don't know if that's true or not.
Used to take mine swimming when we had a facility nearby, great for getting them fit

I've also heard the warning about eventers and it affecting the way they jump into water - specifically their landing reflex but I also don't know if it's true. I read it on an eventing group thread about using water treadmills.
