Hydrotherapy

What is Hydrotherapy?

Hydrotherapy is a gentle and effective form of physiotherapy that uses water-based treatments to help with pain relief, healing, and rehabilitation. It typically involves immersing the body—or a specific part of it—in warm water, allowing therapy to begin earlier than traditional physiotherapy. Thanks to the buoyancy of water, it reduces strain on joints and muscles, making it easier and safer to move, even in the early stages of recovery.

How Can Hydrotherapy Help You?

Hydrotherapy offers a wide range of benefits and is especially helpful for people recovering from:

• Injuries

• Neurological conditions

• Musculoskeletal disorders

The natural resistance of water helps to strengthen muscles, increase flexibility, and reduce pain, all while keeping pressure off the joints. It’s an ideal option if you’re dealing with pain, stiffness, or limited mobility—and it’s just as effective for those who want a gentle, low-impact way to stay active, unwind, and relieve everyday fatigue.

What to Expect After Your First Session

It’s completely normal to feel a bit tired or slightly sore after your first hydrotherapy session—just like with any new form of exercise. These effects are temporary and often fade quickly. To support your recovery and prevent any muscle cramps, make sure to stay hydrated before and after your session.
