water immersion therapy

Water immersion therapy involves submerging the body in water, typically warm or cold, to promote physical and mental health benefits. The therapy leverages water's unique properties—buoyancy reduces stress on joints and muscles, while temperature can improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and aid relaxation. It’s used to manage pain, enhance recovery from injury, and support mental wellness through calming effects. This non-invasive approach can be tailored to individual needs, making it popular in both medical rehabilitation and holistic wellness practices.
