Water therapy indications

Hydrotherapy is the best method of rehabilitation and fighting overweight.
Underwater therapy may be used just before and soon after surgery. It allows early intervention and faster recovery of the body.
Water resistance improves the whole musculo-skeletal system and reduces joint stiffness. It brings more benefits of work out and improves motility of the musculo-skeletal system. It also reduces pain and increases blood flow.
The natural buoyancy of water lowers the relative body weight, which reduces burden on joints. Therefore, water treadmill work out may be used by patients for which training on a dry treadmill or outdoors is contraindicated or impossible.
The device combines exceptional functionality and compact structure. It may be installed in places where the use of a traditional pool is restricted due to location or costs (the minimum recommended size of the room: 2.5 m x 2.5m).
