Aquatic Exercise in Pregnancy

Be gentle with your body during pregnancy. A comfortable, safe prenatal aquatherapy experience awaits in our thermomineral pool, guided by obstetrics and PMR specialists.

HIGHLIGHTS

What stands out in this treatment

Relieves Low Back & Hip Load

Water carries most of the added body weight; pressure on the low back and hips eases.

Low-Impact & Safe

Buoyancy provides a safe exercise environment that protects joints and balance and reduces fall risk.

Edema & Circulation Support

Water pressure can reduce the sensation of swelling in the legs and supports circulation.

Endurance & Comfort

Regular in-water work increases endurance and overall comfort throughout pregnancy.

Under Specialist Supervision

The program is advanced appropriately for pregnancy with obstetrics and PMR approval, accompanied by a physiotherapist.

No Swimming Required

Programs are usually in standing depth; swimming ability is not needed.

Insurance & agreements

Transparent payment with contracted institutions and private insurers, at home and abroad.

Accommodation & rooms

Companion-friendly modern patient rooms and in-city accommodation support.

International patient services

Visa, airport transfer and 24/7 multilingual medical interpreters.

Transparent, guaranteed price

A quote prepared from your medical information; no extra charge for the treatments it covers.
