How does hydrotherapy work?
Hydrotherapy works with the following principles:
- The water is heated between 32-35 degrees which aids in muscle and joint relaxation.
- The buoyancy of the water assists in reducing gravity and thus load through your joints which in turn makes similar land exercises much more comfortable.
- Equipment such as noodles, kick boards and paddles can all be used to assist exercise progression by increasing resistance through the water.

Hydrotherapy may benefit a variety of people in the following ways:
- Reduces pain
