Benefits of Hydrotherapy for Recovery and Rehabilitation 🏊‍♀️

Hydrotherapy is a powerful form of physical therapy that uses water to improve movement and reduce pain. The unique properties of water make it an ideal environment for healing and rehabilitation.

When immersed in water, your body experiences:

• Buoyancy: Water supports up to 90% of your body weight, reducing stress on painful joints and making movement easier for those with limited mobility.
• Hydrostatic pressure: This gentle, even pressure helps reduce swelling and improves circulation throughout your body.
• Resistance: Water provides natural resistance that strengthens muscles without the harsh impact of land-based exercises.
• Warmth: Our heated hydrotherapy pool relaxes muscles, increases blood flow, and soothes joint pain.

Regular hydrotherapy sessions can help:

• Reduce pain from arthritis and chronic conditions
• Improve recovery after surgery or injury
• Increase joint mobility and range of motion
• Build strength and confidence in a supportive environment
• Enhance overall wellbeing through gentle exercise

HydroFUNCTION classes at Westwave are led by knowledgeable instructors who can adapt exercises to your individual needs. The warm water environment is particularly beneficial for those who find traditional exercise challenging, providing an opportunity to stay active while managing pain or recovering from injury. 💪 🌊
