We are an independent canine therapy centre focused entirely on your dog’s wellbeing, comfort and quality of life. We provide hydrotherapy and complementary therapies in a calm, supportive environment, where every dog is treated with patience, understanding and care.
Our highly trained, experienced team brings together expertise in canine hydrotherapy, physiotherapy, massage therapy and related disciplines. Working collaboratively, we tailor treatment plans to each individual dog, selecting the therapies that best support their needs rather than following a fixed approach.
We work closely with dog owners and veterinary professionals and are always guided by what is safest and most beneficial for the dog in front of us. Whether supporting recovery from injury, managing long-term conditions such as arthritis, or helping dogs stay active and comfortable as they age, our priority is always evidence-informed care with your dog’s best interests at heart.
We offer a joined-up approach, combining therapies to match what your dog needs most. Find out ore below, or visit our What We Do page to read about our holistic approach.
We have been coming to Bluestone hydrotherapy for over 15 months now after being recommended to try hydrotherapy for our 6 year old lab Willow who has struggled with hip pain since she was around 18 months old.
Nicki and all the team have been fantastic, Willow has gained muscle mass in her back legs, lost some much needed weight and is happier and healthier, she absolutely loves her sessions.
She’s enjoying walks more and is running about much more comfortably with no signs of after walk stress or pain. Thank you Bluestone, Willow is a much happier dog for your treatment.
In a short space of time my cockapoo has gone from strength to strength – with the vet confirming that he is happy Bertie will not need surgery – such a relief.
We continue to go on a less regular basis as part of his maintenance programme and he just loves it!
A wonderful bunch of people with outstanding service. We think they are great! Thank you
I’ve been taking George to Bluestone Hydrotherapy for over 4 years since he was diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia when he was just a puppy.
George has made great progress and the regular sessions have helped him gain muscle, become much stronger and avoid the need for surgery.
The team are extremely friendly, knowledgeable and George absolutely loves it! I would highly recommend Bluestone.
Duke has been going to Bluestone for over 5 years now after having a cruciate ligament surgery. He has done the treadmill and the pool to help with his recovery which he has throughly enjoyed.
We have been very lucky that Nicki and her team have helped to keep his mobility as good as as it is as he does suffer with arthritis.
I would recommend them to anyone for the support and care they give your dog.
I fully recommend Bluestone hydrotherapy. Amazing knowledgeable and compassionate individualised care has been given by Nicki and her team to Chester (and me) during the two years that he has been having weekly hydrotherapy sessions in the pool.
It is maintaining his fitness level and he loves life at the moment. I know that they will be there to support us throughout our journey.
Nicki is fabulous. My dog (awful hip dysplasia, practically no hip joints at all!) has been swimming weekly with Nicki for over 5 years, and at the age of 8 my feisty Welsh terrier is living her best life.
Without a doubt due to Nicki’s consistent hard work. All the more extraordinary as when diagnosed 7 and a half years ago my dog was given a dreadful prognosis and was not expected to survive a year. Can’t praise Bluestone Hydrotherapy enough!
My dog Helly was referred to Bluestone Hydrotherapy by Southern Counties Veterinary Specialist’s in Ringwood following TPLO cruciate ligament surgery on her right hind.
Helly was assessed and given exercises by the head physiotherapist at SCV who suggested Bluestone would meet Hellys needs and was closer to me (in Andover).
It is a quick easy journey from Andover taking me 15 mins with ample parking.
After Helly’s recovery treatment plan was completed I continued to take her purely for maintenance and monitoring.
Meg has been attending regular sessions at Bluestone Hydrotherapy for over 8 years.
Swimming has helped Meg to avoid surgery and live an active, pain free, happy life. Meg is now nearly 13 years old and still loves her walks, she is very active and strong and moves freely.
Meg absolutely loves the care and attention she gets when she comes for her weekly swim. I would highly recommend Bluestone.
Oatie has been visiting Bluestone Hydrotherapy for the past 6 years having been diagnosed with elbow displasia. I credit these visits with keeping him sound and pain free as he moves towards his more senior years.
It is also his favourite part of the week, water, cuddles and a good boy biscuit, Labrador heaven. Nickie and her team are some of his greatest friends and have done wonders for him over the years for which I can’t thank them enough.
I’ve been taking my dog to Bluestone for over 12 months as treatment for an ongoing condition, and they honestly couldn’t be any better. Extremely friendly, knowledgeable and our dog absolutely loves it!
100% recommend!
