Become fully qualified and confident in equine hydrotherapy
Expand your skills, strengthen your credibility, and add a high-value service to your equine practice or yard.
Before training, hydrotherapy sessions in the equine industry typically charge £25–£65 per horse. After completing recognised training, practitioners are able to position themselves to charge £50–£90 per session, reflecting their qualification and professional credibility. Running around 20 sessions per week at these rates, qualified practitioners could generate between £50,000 and £90,000 in additional annual revenue.
Across the equine industry, hydrotherapy is becoming more Regulated and professionally regulated, and insurers looking for regulated training before practitioners or yards can offer these services under their insurance cover.
That means the professionals gaining recognised qualifications now are positioning themselves ahead of the industry shift — able to offer hydrotherapy confidently, attract rehabilitation cases, work alongside vets and physiotherapists, and grow the value of their equine business.
This training gives you the knowledge, credibility, and professional recognition to move forward with confidence and add a specialist service to your practice.
