Pool Therapy
THE FUTURE OF AQUATIC THERAPY HAS ARRIVED
- right here in North County.
Tri-City Medical Center’s Wellness Center in Carlsbad and the HydroWorx 2000 Aquatic Therapy Pool: bringing you the most advanced aquatic therapy. The power of water in physical rehabilitation is a well-known fact. The HydroWorx 2000 harnesses that power for everyone from physical therapy patients to professional athletes.
The revolutionary therapy pool can provide truly amazing results for patients suffering from a wide range of diseases, injuries, and conditions including:
- Orthopedic and post-surgical rehab
- Traumatic brain injury
- Acute spinal cord injury
- Chronic pain
- Arthritis
Rehab the way pro athletes do. NFL stars Terrell Owens and Carson Palmer used the HydroWorx 2000 after injuries sidelined them. Owens expected to be out for several weeks. He credits the HydroWorx 2000 with speeding his recovery and getting him ready for the Super Bowl. Aquatic therapy helps athletes start the rehab process almost immediately because water lets them workout in a non-weight bearing environment.
The HydroWorx 2000 has many distinct features that set it apart from standard therapy pools.
- Adjustable floor from 0’ to 6’ for easy patient access
- Variable water depth
- Removable support bars
- Large treatment area of 8’ x 12’ that can accommodate 4 to 6 people
- Resistance jets
- Underwater cameras and monitoring system
The HydroWorx 2000 opens a world of possibilities to patients who are unable to do traditional, land-based therapy. Water supports the body. It provides low or no impact resistance that helps patients improve mobility, strength, and function more rapidly than with traditional therapy alone.
Clinical studies have shown that patients improved their overall health and fitness in the HydroWorx 2000 without the joint trauma and “wear and tear” of working out on land. 4 out of 5 subjects said they preferred exercising in the HydroWorx pool rather than on a land treadmill.*
