Hydrotherm is a unique, three-dimensional massage technique, which allows the therapist to slide their hands under, over and around the client’s body in an uninterrupted motion. The advantages of Hydrotherm Massage include intense relaxation, with considerable benefits to those clients who cannot physically lie face down, for example, heavily pregnant clients, the elderly and those with impaired mobility. These clients can receive a Hydrotherm Treatment without the discomfort associated with a conventional massage.
Hydrotherm is also extremely beneficial when used in physiotherapy, remedial massage, osteopathy and in chiropractic clinics, as a more relaxed client is easier to manipulate.
The Hydrotherm System incorporates added benefits for the massage therapist too. Because a Hydrotherm Treatment uses the client’s own body weight as the source of pressure, the therapist therefore exerts less pressure, significantly reducing the strain, which is usually placed on the hands and wrists of the therapists.
