Water,
well-being at
its origins
hydromassage
therapeutic properties
“W
ater provides healing”, affirmed the Abbot,
Sebastian Kneipp in the latter part of the
nineteenth century, setting the foundations
for modern hydrotherapy: a healing method based upon
numerous water applications.
Partial and complete showers, cold, hot or steam baths,
bare-foot walks (even in seat water or streams) help us re-
awaken, all thanks to the thermal contrast produced by cold
and hot water, natural self-healing mechanisms of the body.
The first reaction which can be felt on the skin is followed by a second reaction which af-
fects the internal body tissues, connected to the surface via nerves: by acting on the blood
concentration, a state of balance is applied to the body part to be healed. A natural practice
which stimulates innate healing, activating the aforementioned to re-stabilise the state of
health.
Hydromassage is a form of therapy which takes place using water jets at specific pres-
sures and directed in a clearly defined direction.
The Jacuzzi® hydromassage tubs represent the results of detailed design research and
are designed so that specific attention is paid to the position of the jets, which are con-
sidered in terms of the ergonomics of internal forms, to optimise the effects of the hydro-
therapy actions.
Stimulation of the skin using warm baths and hydromassage increases the circulation,
blood flow, even the lymphatic system, activating enzyme activity stimulants.
Hydromassage provides significant effects in terms of treating issues associated with
blood circulation in the legs, but also in the case of osteoarthritis, rheumatic disorder,
phlebitis.
The therapeutic properties of hot water are effective for all body types, sizes and to
meet all stress levels and serve an extremely important role for many patients suffering
with musculoskeletal pain, all thanks to the heat and hydrostatics of the water.
