The gold standard in equine hydrotherapy. Our Hudson Aquapacer provides low-impact cardiovascular conditioning that builds strength while protecting joints and tendons.
The Hudson Aquapacer is the premier underwater treadmill system designed specifically for equine rehabilitation and conditioning. It combines the benefits of controlled exercise with the therapeutic properties of water to provide unmatched recovery support.
The buoyancy of water reduces the weight-bearing load on your horse's limbs by up to 60%, allowing for movement and exercise that would be impossible or painful on land. Meanwhile, the water's natural resistance helps build muscle strength efficiently.

From post-surgical recovery to performance conditioning, the Hudson Aquapacer delivers results
Water buoyancy reduces weight-bearing stress on joints, making exercise possible during recovery from injuries or surgery.
Water resistance provides excellent resistance training, building muscle strength and endurance without impact stress.
Improve heart and lung capacity with controlled aerobic exercise that can be precisely adjusted for each horse.
Water encourages natural, exaggerated leg movement that improves flexibility and maintains range of motion during recovery.
Horses using water treadmill therapy often return to work faster with better outcomes than traditional rehabilitation alone.
Stall-bound horses benefit from the mental stimulation and exercise, reducing boredom and stress during recovery periods.
The Hudson Aquapacer is effective for a wide range of equine conditions:
Maintain peak fitness during off-seasons or between competitions without the stress of hard ground work.
Post-injury or post-surgical horses can begin movement therapy sooner and more safely than with traditional methods.
Older horses with arthritis or joint issues can stay active and mobile with gentle, low-impact exercise.
Safe exercise option for horses needing to lose weight without putting extra strain on joints and limbs.
