The Positive Effects of Hydrotherapy
When under stress (whatever the cause) the chemical changes in the body can cause the blood pressure to rise and the pulse rate to become faster than normal, which can cause symptoms like palpitations, panic attacks, anxiety, etc. Having regular hydrotherapy treatments can reduce these symptoms by slowing down the process of stress reaction, as the warm water and sensation of the passive massage allows the body to relax and unwind under the custom-built jets positioned for your particular body shape and condition.
At the First Treatment
Blood pressure and pulse rate return to normal. (Normal adult resting pulse = 60 – 80 beats per minute and blood pressure 120 over 70 mm).
- After five minutes - Circulation improves in hands and feet, making them warmer.
- After ten minutes - The muscles relax and become more receptive to passive exercise; fibrous tissue becomes more pliable and responsive to stretching, encouraging the release of lactic acid and other toxins from the system.
- After fifteen minutes - Aches and pains experience a decrease in severity.
- After twenty minutes - The immune system is improved.
After Three Treatments
Emotional stress and physical tension are noticeably reduced.
After Five Treatments
Pain relief is longer lasting and there is a greater sense of well being.
After Ten Treatments
There is a heightened resistance to disease and depression. The skin is clearer and “glows” with health. Muscle tone and mobility improves.
