What is hydrotherapy?
A hydro pool works by stimulating touch receptors on the skin using the motion of the water to relieve muscles. The concept is to rid the body of toxins that may be inflicting joint pain and inflammation.
This type of physiotherapy was first discovered by ancient Egyptians, who recognised the therapeutic benefits of bathing in warm water. Over 4,000 years later, hydrotherapy is still recommended as a highly effective treatment for many conditions.
What are the health benefits?
Hydrotherapy has many benefits, from treating major physical illnesses and injuries to improving general health and well-being. A hydro pool can be invaluable in helping with muscular conditions such as arthritis, rheumatism, fatigue, back pain and other conditions caused by inflammation.
In addition, hydro pools have been proven to help those suffering from long-term illnesses or those in need of pain relief and are often used to help physically disabled people and those with learning disabilities to exercise.

At Origin Leisure, we believe it’s the smaller details that make the difference and take time to understand how the hydrotherapy pool may help the user, both now and in the future if their symptoms change. While a hydro pool is crucial for pain relief and treating major physical problems, it isn’t just the water that’s important. For many conditions, the lighting, heating, strength of the jets and even sounds can impact on the comfort of the user.

What is involved in construction?
Hydrotherapy pool construction requires specialist design, knowledge and experience and must be tailored to the needs of the individual. This will dictate the planning, design, water and air temperatures needed but most importantly if ancillary equipment is necessary, there may also be additional access and safety requirements to be carefully considered.
Higher water temperatures are a key element of hydrotherapy pools, allowing you to benefit from the heat of the water by relaxing muscles, improving muscle length and reducing pain and muscle spasms. You can also enjoy water-based exercises to improve core strength, coordination and cardiovascular fitness. Many of these benefits aren’t achievable at lower water temperatures, so a hydrotherapy pool design needs advanced equipment to manage the high levels of water evaporation in the environment to stop condensation, mould or deterioration of the building.
While a hydrotherapy pool is crucial for pain relief and treating major physical problems, it isn’t just the water that’s important. For those suffering from certain conditions, the lighting, air heating, internal building finishes and even sounds can have an impact on comfort, these are all important considerations we take into account during the planning process.
