The Hydro Physio underwater treadmill is a state-of-the-art piece of equipment used in physiotherapy and medical rehabilitation. It combines the benefits of physical exercise with the therapeutic properties of water, allowing movement without major joint impact. The system includes a heated water cabin and an adjustable treadmill where patients can exercise in safety and comfort.

Water reduces your perceived body weight by up to 80%, which means less stress on joints, ligaments and spine, facilitating recovery.

The therapy begins with the patient entering the Hydro Physio cabin, where the water level is adjusted according to height and the condition being treated. The water is kept at a comfortable temperature (around 32-35°C), promoting muscle relaxation and stimulating circulation.

The treadmill can be set at variable speeds, and the patient walks, jogs lightly or performs specific exercises recommended by the physiotherapist. Thanks to hydrostatic pressure, movements are more fluid and the sensation of heaviness is reduced, allowing effective physical activity even for people with severe joint pain.

Throughout the session, the patient is monitored and the exercises can be adjusted in real time to suit their progress and comfort. The Hydro Physio system also allows supervised balance or stretching exercises.

This form of therapy is non-invasive, safe and perceived by most patients as relaxing and motivating.
