Ever wondered why you feel so calm and relaxed after a long soak in a hot bath, the answer is hydrotherapy.
Hydrotherapy constitutes the therapeutic effect by the use of water, whether this is dry hydrotherapy (water jets directed to the body beneath a thin membrane) or hydro massage (the pressure of jet-driven water) which soothes away muscle tension and soreness therefore increasing the body's natural healing process.
Hydrotherapy massage helps you to deal with the effects of these different factors and helps to prepare you and, in particular, your body, to cope with the stressors which you experience as stress and tension.

By raising the body's temperature, blood vessels are dilated resulting in increased circulation and therefore lowering toxins; all these contributing factors can be beneficial towards a range of health issues including type 2 diabetes, arthritis, and insomnia.
Hydrotherapy promotes stress relief and relaxation whilst the warm water increases blood flow and stimulates endorphins, providing a natural feeling of well being.
The buoyancy of water reduces the body's weight by approximately 90% therefore lifting pressure from muscles and joints.

Hydrotherapy's more conventional uses are the treatment of muscle weakness, balance disorders, Type 2 diabetes and other diseases that impair circulation, cramps, pre-menstrual syndrome, arthritis, back pain, muscular-skeletal injuries and soft tissue injuries but these days with life's day to day stress and sense of urgency the effects of massage within the mind and body can be a proactive way to combat a whole array of conditions within today's society.
Anyone who has enjoyed a good massage can remember the euphoric and peaceful feelings it aroused and your body felt refreshed and relaxed a sense of well-being and energy had been restored however, the benefits of massage may last beyond the afterglow with a continuing positive effect on your health. There are many factors - physical and emotional; internal and external - which cause stress, how you perceive and react to these factors can affect the impact they have on your body.

Although not providing quite as effective calming qualities as hydro-massage swimming in a pool or against a swim jet system can still have beneficial effects alongside the health and fitness aspect.
Another way of hydrotherapy is by use in a steam room or sauna, the increase in body temperature together with the increased oxygen intake makes the heart pump faster to supply all the body parts with the freshly oxygenated blood supply.
All these factors which promote and increase the feeling of wellbeing need not be carried out in a health spa or medical centre, hydrotherapy is now affordable in the individuals? home or garden
