Hydrotherapy is a form of physiotherapy treatment conducted in a heated pool. The treatment is supervised by physiotherapists with hydrotherapy training. Specifically designed exercises help regain or enhance physical well being. Clients are individually assessed to develop a tailored treatment plan conducted individually or in a group setting. Patients do not need to be able to swim in order to benefit from hydrotherapy. Movement in water is easier than on land. The effects of turbulence and buoyancy combined with warm water helps reduce pain and muscle spasm.
