Hydrotherapy pools
Hydrotherapy pools are specially designed swimming pools that use warm water to provide therapeutic benefits. The temperature of the water is typically maintained between 33°C to 36°C (91°F to 97°F), which helps to relax muscles and improve circulation. These pools are often used in rehabilitation settings, such as physical therapy clinics, to aid recovery from injuries or surgeries.
In addition to physical therapy, hydrotherapy pools can also be beneficial for individuals with chronic pain conditions, such as arthritis or fibromyalgia. The buoyancy of the water reduces stress on joints, allowing for easier movement and exercise. Many wellness centers and spas also offer hydrotherapy pools as part of their relaxation and wellness programs.
