About Us


Craigard Hydrotherapy is owned and run by Julie Smith (BSc), a fully qualified hydrotherapist (Diploma - Level 3) and specialist with the aquatic treadmill. Julie has over 15 years experience in dealing with rescue dogs (mainly through Labrador Rescue) and has 8 of her own, each having presented her with varying degrees of disabilities and problems.

It was through dealing with these issues that Julie decided to move from a pool environment to the more target specific hydrotherapy that a treadmill can offer.

Craigard now has a purpose-built hydro suite with a top of the range treadmill installed, we are located on a quiet lane, close to Donington Village, and there is ample parking next to the suite.

Our aim is to provide a professional service in a caring environment to enhance the health and well-being of your dog, as member of the CHA we adhere to the high standards set by this Association.
