 Aqua Training for Horses

 

A story from the field

Matthias explained us that a Grand Prix dressage rider came to his clinic with an older but very good horse which was lame. After multiple treatments in the Aqua Trainer with Matthias the horse was back to health. Sadly, soon after being home the horse was lame again. They decided to continue the aqua training sessions in combination with simple training at home and the horse was back to perfect health & ready to compete again. Since than the rider bought an Aqua Trainer, as he found out that his horse needed the Aqua training more than he needed daily training with the rider. With the Aqua trainer the older horse was able to stay with fit without having too much pressure on the body and was back competing with good results.
