What is Aqua/Hydro Therapy? It
is massage therapy (manipulation of muscle & soft
tissue to help reduce stress, spasm, pain and discomfort) without the usual
inconvenience, time or expense.
The user remains
fully clothed and dry - A water proof sheet conforms to the user, allowing a full
surface massage
on three sides of the body. There is no need to shower after due to the fact
that no oils or lotions are used. The Personal Touch - The user controls
the water pressure, pulse rate and travel speed of the 36 jets for personal
comfort of a full body or localized massage.
Aqua Massage is
for Everyone – You
can enjoy the benefits of a massage without the usual inconvenience, time
or expense. In only 10 to 15 minutes you can feel refreshed and relaxed.
It is perfect for any busy schedule.
In today’s society, stress is
a major factor to be considered when evaluating an injury/ailment. Aqua/Hydro
Therapy is an excellent stress management technique: not only can it
untie physical knots, it can also clear your head and release the tension/stress
often associated with daily activities.
People today are experiencing
more stress and discovering that the ancient
art of massage may be just what the doctor ordered to relieve pain, encourage
healing and relax their stressed-out bodies. No stress-reduction program
