Aquatic Therapy In An Endless Swimming Pool

Monday, August 27th, 2007

Beneficial Aquatic Therapy In An Endless Pool Because it is nearly gravity-free, aquatic exercise is the preferred therapy for many medical conditions; thus an Endless Pool, can provide aquatic therapy at the ideal temperature and pace for your needs, in total privacy and at your own convenience.

The Endless Pool’s adjustable current allows for an easily monitored progression of exercises.

Leslie Krichko, a professional water therapist and trainer, advises “therapy in an Endless Pool actually helps people with injuries recover faster,” for several reasons:

  • Water provides buoyancy and support for the body. When you are neck-deep in water, you only have to  support 10% of your actual body  weight.
  • In the pool, injured people can exercise with a greater range of motion without hurting joints or re-injuring themselves.
  • The workout gets blood moving faster through the injured area, so it heals faster.
  • Water pressure helps keep down the swelling that often accompanies injury.
  • You can increase your physical fitness while you recuperate, so prolonged physical therapy just to get back in shape, may not be necessary.

Water therapy can also be of benefit for people with arthritis, osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, asthma, and chronic joint or back pain.

The ability to set the water temperature cooler (i.e. for MS), or warmer (i.e. for arthritis), is another key advantage of the Endless Pool.

Endless Pools was established in 1998 to provide an exercise swimming pool enabling people to swim at home.

To date the company have installed over 10,000 pools globally and hundreds of Endless Pools have been bought across the UK.

The Endless Pool is perfect for the British climate as the modular design makes installation possible even in small spaces indoors and all components fit easily through a standard doorway or stairway.

Pools are easily set up in existing spaces such as garages or basements and in new extensions e.g. conservatories and even prefab garden sheds.

Benefits include:

You can swim all year round in the comfort and convenience of your own home:

Easy to install, simple to maintain and economical to run.

Fits virtually anywhere – indoors or outside.
 
Uses less space, water and energy than traditional pools, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

You can “try before you buy” at Endless Swimming pools located across the UK.

The Endless Pool works by means of a propulsion unit that moves a huge amount of water - up to 5,000 gallons a minute, through two grills that straighten and smooth the water’s flow; the result is a river-like current that is totally adjustable in speed from a gentle flow to a racer’s pace by simply turning a knob.

Numerous pool and spa professionals throughout the UK have been trained by the company to install your dream pool.
