Located in Hermiston, Oregon just off I-84
Some horses are power swimmers, while others are elegant and graceful.They all benefit from the muscular, flexibility and aerobic exercise offered by continual water resistance while in the pool.
This is Rocket Ta Fame exercising in the pool.
We are proud to announce that we are launching an exciting new addition to our facility. Equiswim NW is teaming up with Xtreme Equine Sports Therapy & will be offering a complete equine rehabilitation package.
Our equine pool auguments a comprehensive conditioning program, while avoiding the physical concussions of ground training. It allows horses to maintain muscle tone and cardiovascular health with out straining joints, tendons and ligaments.
We provide complete individual rehabilitation assessment upon arrival to our facility.
Swimming programs are structured for each horse based on the breed, initial fittness level, the speed in which the horse swims, the discipline being trained for and whether the horse is being conditioned for fitness or recovering from an injury.
With both horses and staff in mind, our pool is equipped with excellent features allowing the entry, swimming and exiting of the pool to be as safe as possible.
All aspects of our therapy facility are handled by an experienced staff whose dedication is second to none and assumes the success of Equiswim NW.
"At Equiswim NW, we are dedicated to the Safety and Well Being of each and every horse we swim. Our goal is to get horses in the best condition as possible, and provide the best quality care and service to the horses and owners we serve."
"Swimming is a major part of my conditioning program for my horses.
It is what helped keep Rocky in peek condition for all the years he was competing. The biggest benefit that I saw, besides the no impact workout on his joints, was the aerobic workout he was getting. He has COPD and swimming increased his breathing capasity. I didn't have to give him anything to help him breathe for competition, after we started swimming him.
I also notice with all my horses that the recovery time after competing, is faster than when I don't swim them."
