About diagnosis, treatment and recovery
Does aquatic therapy really reduce fibromyalgia pain?
Warm water and buoyancy relax muscles and reduce joint load, enabling pain-free movement. Low-impact in-water work can help ease pain in many patients.
How does warm water affect muscle spasm and tension?
The heat of thermomineral water relieves muscle spasm and reduces widespread tension, providing relaxation.
Does aquatic therapy trigger flares?
When intensity is increased individually and gradually, flare risk is minimized; the program advances safely under PMR supervision.
I cannot swim; can I receive aquatic therapy?
Aquatic therapy does not require swimming; sessions use gentle exercises in a supported, shallow, safe setting.
My fatigue is severe; how can I tolerate exercise?
Low-impact in-water work helps manage fatigue; intensity rises gradually so your endurance builds over time.
What is the difference between balneotherapy and aquatic exercise?
Balneotherapy is a complementary method using mineral water; aquatic exercise is active movement using water buoyancy. A program may combine both.
How many sessions does a program take and when will I see results?
Session count and duration are personalized to your pain level, endurance and goals; a detailed plan follows the first assessment.
Is aquatic therapy applied in chronic low back and neck pain too?
Yes; aquatic therapy aims to ease chronic low back, neck and joint pain by offering a low-impact, safe movement setting.
Are there situations where aquatic therapy is not advisable?
In some cardiac, skin or infection conditions aquatic therapy may not be suitable; your physician confirms eligibility at assessment.
How does the process work for patients coming from abroad?
International patients get visa, transfer, accommodation and medical interpreter support; assessment is planned in advance via file sharing.
