Understanding Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy, also known as aquatic therapy, uses water's therapeutic properties, such as buoyancy, resistance, compression and warmth, to aid rehabilitation. These factors combine to reduce joint stress, relieve pain, improve range of movement and cardiovascular health and enhance recovery

Benefits of Hydrotherapy for Recovery and Pain Management

  • Reduced Joint Pressure: Water's buoyancy alleviates pressure on joints, which is crucial for managing lower back pain and lower limb discomfort.
  • Improved Mobility and Flexibility: Strengthen muscles and increase joint flexibility with low-impact water resistance exercises.
  • Pain Relief and Relaxation: Experience significant pain reduction through warm water immersion, which helps ease muscle tension and improve circulation.
  • Faster Rehabilitation: Hydrotherapy supports post-surgery recovery by facilitating gentle yet effective movements, promoting healing.
  • Better Cardiovascular Health: Improve cardiovascular endurance and respiratory efficiency in a stress-free aquatic environment.

  • Those Suffering from Chronic Lower Back Pain
