clinical hydrotherapy

Clinical hydrotherapy is a therapeutic treatment that uses water in various forms—such as hot packs, cold compresses, whirlpools, or showers—to promote healing, reduce pain, and improve mobility. It is often prescribed by healthcare professionals for conditions like musculoskeletal injuries, arthritis, or post-surgical recovery. The temperature, pressure, and timing are carefully controlled to stimulate blood flow, relax muscles, or decrease inflammation, aiding the body's natural healing processes. Hydrotherapy can be delivered in specialized clinics or medical settings, providing a safe and effective complement to other forms of rehabilitation.
