Just a musing...
I know there's been an increase in the use of water treadmills for post surgery rehab, I was just wondering what peoples thoughts on this are. When working in the treadmill, joint range of movement is increased. This can obviously be a positive at a later stage of rehab where joints need to regain range of motion but a lot of vets seem to refer to treadmill very soon following joint surgeries. Discuss.
