Create a Noticeable Difference in Your Residents' Well-Being

HydroWorx products will help improve balance to reduce resident falls within your organization. It also allows active residents the opportunity to continue to exercise with less pain, improves everyday activities for sedentary residents and leads to increased independence. By offering HydroWorx technology within your facility's wellness program, you are helping your residents become more active, healthy and independent; thus increasing their lengths of stay within assisted and independent types of living.

  • While walking on the underwater treadmill, it's virtually pain-free. Your reduced body weight eases the pressure on joints so individuals can move freely.
  • The resistance of water provides up to 200 times more resistance than land. Our adjustable jets can provide additional resistance to increase balance and leg strength or challenge a patient post-surgery.
  • Our deep tissue massage eases sore muscles and achy joints, and can manipulate scar tissue that may build up post surgery.
  • Due to the comfort of warm water and the elimination of the fear of falling, patient compliance and rehab potential both increase.

Increase Rehabilitation Outcomes and Resident Satisfaction

HydroWorx underwater treadmill and resistance jet technology can allow for a variety of benefits for the rehabilitation patient by decreasing their short term rehab stay following a hospitalization, surgery, and/or injury. Thus returning patients home or back to assisted or independent living sooner; as well as providing significant financial savings. What this means to your patients and their rehab programs:

  • Begin rehab sooner. Patients can begin aquatic therapy typically 3-4 days post surgery by waterproofing the wound with a bio-occlusive dressing. This decreases swelling and discomfort allowing the patient to unload their body weight and move freely in the warm water. Speeding up recovery and minimizing the loss of range of motion and muscle.
  • There are no accessibility or depth issues with the 2000 or 1200 Series pools, allowing for resident comfort and compliance, and eliminating fear and traditional pool barriers.
  • The buoyancy of the water along with the safe speeds of the underwater treadmill, offer a way to strengthen legs and improve gait, easily accommodating patients at varying rehab levels.
  • Balance programs tailored to the individual can be provided in a safe and pain free environment. Individuals can confidently walk or work on balance and posture without the fear of falling or injury.
  • The hydrostatic pressure of water naturally decreases inflammation and increases circulation, helping eliminate muscle soreness.

"What we've seen through the use of the underwater treadmill has been absolutely incredible. We had a woman who could not stand or walk for approximately more than 10 minutes a time and she was able to do 40 minutes on the treadmill and was gleaming from ear to ear."
