3. Improving cardiovascular fitness:

Some customers find performing aerobic exercises on land painful or uncomfortable. Hydrotherapy is ideal for them because the water buoyancy reduces effective body weight by 80% when the body is submerged to the chest. Therefore, clients feel "lighter" when in the water and can move freely, allowing them to perform exercises at greater intensities than on land.

The Spa at Holbrook's HydroWorx pool has a built-in treadmill that allows clients to perform aerobic exercises such as walking and running while in the water. Practicing these activities improves cardiovascular health and increases endurance.

4. Faster rehabilitation:

Hydrotherapy rehabilitation provides a safe and controlled physical therapy environment to help individuals recover faster from injuries and surgeries.

Performing aquatic therapy exercises has multiple advantages for clients. This practice allows clients to reduce expected recovery time, and it is also more gentle than traditional therapy since it makes it easier for customers to perform the movements in the water, which allows them to return to their previous lifestyle faster.

5. Chronic Pain Relief:

Usually, we think that pain will go away on its own when we don't feel well. But when that's not the case, and the condition worsens gradually, we talk about chronic pain.

Sometimes clients only realize how much the condition has changed once their lifestyle is affected. Some chronic conditions we have seen in customers daily include back and neck pain, arthritis, osteoporosis, kidney disease, fibromyalgia, and many others.

The use of a hydrotherapy treadmill is excellent for reducing chronic pain. Regarding the lower extremities, customers can improve their ability to walk. For pain along the upper body, the water-soothing effect alleviates pain in the muscles and nerves of the afflicted area.

We also recommend aquatic therapy to athletes and people involved in accidents. Recovery time depends on overall physical health, the age of the client, and the cause of the injury. If the damage isn't very extensive, the pain and discomfort will likely go away once the affected area heals.

For example, a fractured arm can heal in a few weeks to months. Customers can still use the hydrotherapy treadmill, in this case, to keep the lower body strong and active. Once the arm heals, the coach can implement new exercises to incorporate the use of the arm in future sessions.

Injuries are common in athletes and people who are starting to work out. An injury can result from overstretching a muscle, incorrect posture when exercising, or a blunt impact with another player. Sometimes not stretching properly before a workout or a simple fall can prevent an individual from going back to their regular lifestyle for a few months.

The hydrotherapy heated pool is a fantastic solution for these types of cases. Our WellFIT certified coaches can adjust the water pressure to reduce muscle pain caused by the injury.
