The application of water as a therapeutic agent is one of the most basic components in the field of rehabilitation. Exercise in water, also known as hydrotherapy, is based on its principles and properties. These are buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, water resistance and temperature. The Lydia Rehabilitation Centre has two indoor pools, controlled by modern systems that ensure chlorination, water quality and ozonation at safe levels, creating an excellent recovery environment. In combination with special equipment, which includes, among other things, electric cranes, a waterway with water resistance and wheeled carts for entering and exiting the water, hydrotherapy is a model for recovery and rehabilitation in Greece. The outpatient pool has a pop-up bottom, so that the water level can be adjusted according to each patient. The inpatient recovery pool has special equipment for hydro-massage as well as an air blower, which provides the beneficial actions that patients need.
Hydrotherapy, i.e. exercise in water, is particularly indicated for treatment:
The Aquaciser III is designed to provide hydrotherapy with aerobic exercise, providing a high strength program. It is aimed at patients who require alternative therapeutic exercise, such as aquatic therapy, where the natural properties of water can reduce swelling and pressure on joints.
The hydrotherapy also includes bilingual baths and two rehabilitation baths.
The hydrotherapy equipment also includes bilobaths and therapeutic baths. The electrotherapy bath is designed to produce a galvanic current in the water, with safe and suitable equipment. This is designed to electrostimulate peripheral neuropathies, resulting in :
