Small Animal Hydrotherapy

Course Overview
This course is aimed at those who wish to build on knowledge and skills to understand the benefits that hydrotherapy can have for canines and other small animals, with a number of conditions, and learn the theory and practical skills required to administer hydrotherapy to them.

The qualification allows learners to gain the required skills, knowledge and behaviours to work professionally in small animal hydrotherapy alongside formalising the capability of those already working in the field.

The qualification meets legislation requirements ensuring that practitioners meet industry standards and conduct hydrotherapy in line with regulatory guidelines. This is an Ofqual-regulated qualification.

Our ultramodern facilities have a 7x4 metre hydrotherapy pool and a state-of-the-art underwater treadmill to support our experienced team in delivering the course to the highest quality with an excellent opportunity to develop and progress as a small animal hydrotherapist.

Learners will benefit from extended hands-on practical time in our commercially operating hydrotherapy centre beyond the minimum required for certification. Learners will spend a minimum of 30 hours over the duration of the course with patients in pool and treadmill sessions.

This course will take place at the newly opened Institute of Technology Veterinary Science and Canine Therapies Centre at Plumpton College.
