Discover Hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy is a therapeutic treatment dating back to the ancient Roman baths, drawing upon the healing properties of water to relieve pain and promote longevity. Throughout a carefully designed circuit, heat is used to detoxify, calm and soothe, while cold is used to stimulate circulation and invigorate, increasing the body’s internal activity. Alternating between hot and cold water treatments helps to heal injuries, enhance immune function, reduce inflammation and alleviate stress, among other benefits.
Benefits of Hydrotherapy
Soothes Muscle Tension and Relieves Pain
The weightlessness of hydrotherapy relieves tension in the limbs, while stimulating the release of endorphins which acts as a natural pain reliever.
Speeds Recovery
Hydrotherapy increases blood circulation which has been proven to help heal injured tissue and rehabilitate damaged muscles or joints.
Boosts the Immune System
Increased blood flow and circulation of white blood cells around the body allows lymph fluid to be moved through the body more efficiently, strengthening the immune system.
Eliminates Toxins
The hydrotherapy circuit enables the body to effectively eliminate toxins through sweating, cleansing the body.
Relieves Stress
Hydrotherapy treatment helps to reduce blood pressure caused by stress and slows the body’s reaction to anxiety. This is further enhanced by the release of endorphins, a natural stress fighter.
The Ritual
Aqua Spa’s complete hydrotherapy circuit encompasses a range of hot and cold experiences, including a dry sauna, eucalyptus steam room, warm shower, cold shower, whirlpool bath and lounge room.
The traditional hydrotherapy circuit or “ritual” includes an experience of heat, followed by cold, and finishing with a period of rest. The circuit is then repeated to achieve the ultimate benefits.
Hydrotherapy Circuit: $30.
Hydrotherapy Circuit combined with spa treatment: $20
Must be at least 18 years old to access our hydrotherapy circuit.
Step 1 - HOT
Experience the many benefits of hot water therapy by enjoying our dry sauna, eucalyptus steam room, or whirlpool bath. In heat therapy, you will begin the detoxification process by increasing the heart rate and dilating the blood vessels so that you can effectively sweat out the body’s toxins.
Step 2 - COLD
Immerse yourself in our cold water therapy shower and emerge feeling reinvigorated and refreshed. Cold water therapy causes the blood vessels to quickly constrict in an effort to move the warm blood deeper into the body to keep warm. This allows oxygen rich blood to be pushed to deeper tissues.
Step 3 - RELAX
This relaxation period allows your cardiovascular system to regulate itself by stabilising heart rate and blood flow.
