Ferno AquaPacer Equine Underwater Treadmill System
AquaPacer Equine Underwater Treadmill System
Rehabilitation, Strength, Fitness, Conditioning. The AquaPacer Equine Underwater Treadmill System was developed to help equine athletes achieve peak performance. Whether rehabilitating an injury or preparing for the performance of a lifetime, the Ferno AquaPacer is the answer!
Both veterinarians and trainers have discovered the benefits of aquatic therapy. The AquaPacer Underwater Treadmill System unites two powerful tools to achieve accelerated conditioning: the natural properties of water and hydrokinetic exercise in a user controlled environment. The natural properties of water: buoyancy, high resistance, hydrostatic pressure and its thermal effect have unparalleled therapeutic benefits that have been utilized for centuries. Hydrokinetic exercise is facilitated by using the horseís own natural movement on a non-slip, solid surface treadmill.
The AquaPacer workout is unparalleled for therapeutic healing and conditioning. Horses and ponies are encouraged to use the same muscles, ligaments and tendons that are employed in traditional land-based exercise but without the stress and trauma.
Therapeutic sessions in the AquaPacer can be fully customized to each horse or pony through variable water heights, variable treadmill speeds and variable water temperatures. The clear viewing panels on the front, back and side allow the user to observe the horseís movement as well as provide a convenient ìwalk-throughî for loading and unloading.
