Hydrotherapy, a practice that harnesses the therapeutic properties of water, offers countless benefits that extend beyond the surface.
From muscle development and injury recovery to stress reduction and increased endurance, the gentle resistance and calming effects of water create a unique environment for enhancing both physical and mental health.
When exercising in water, you’re working against the resistance of water, so by simply kicking and cupping the water, you contribute to muscle development.
Hydrotherapy can also lower high blood pressure, and exercise in water helps you build stability, improves your balance, and expands your muscle strength for better coordination.
This, in turn, affects your movement both in and out of water.
Aqua aerobic workouts are perfect for those who suffer from high blood pressure. Your heart rate can be reduced considerably when exercising in water compared to on land, and participating in water exercises can reduce stress and anxiety.
Aquamoves aqua aerobics instructor Anna Kerambrun says the workouts are perfect for all fitness levels.
“Our sessions combine the resistance of water with dynamic movements to enhance cardiovascular endurance, muscle tone, and flexibility,” she said.
“Join our expert instructors in a fun and supportive group environment as you splash your way to improved health.
“Whether you’re a seasoned swimmer or just dipping your toes, our aqua-aerobics classes offer a unique and enjoyable way to stay active while making a splash.”
Aqua participant Robyn Graystone said the aqua classes were fun and that she enjoyed the exercises that targeted muscles she normally did not use.
“I also love how sociable everyone is in these classes. Aqua is amazing,” Robyn said.
Although it is recommended you talk to a doctor before you start any water exercise routine, aqua aerobics classes can be fun, motivating, and a great way to meet new people and socialise.
Step into the pool, embrace the soothing currents, and let hydrotherapy guide you toward a healthier, happier you.
Whether you’re seeking muscle development, injury recovery, stress reduction, or simply a fun and sociable way to stay active, get ready to make a splash, both in the water and in your life.
