Goals of Hydrotherapy

  •       Total immersion produces buoyancy which creates a hydrodynamic lift, reducing gravitational pull.

 

  •     A body in water weighs only 1/6 of what it does on land.  This decreases muscular tension and allows the patient    to maintain positions that might not be possible on land.  The decrease in tension can also cause an increase in oxytocin and endorphins, creating a euphoric effect.
     

  •     Hydrostatic pressure equalizes the pressure on the body below the water surface which helps to reduce pain.
     

  •       The buoyancy of the water and width of the pool allow patients to easily change positions such as the knee–chest, seated, squatting and four foot stand.

  •       Water reduces the strain on perineal muscles and increases
        elasticity.
