Therapy pools: Healing waters for rehab centres and sports clubs

Aquatic facilities today are essential to the recovery of many who have suffered an injury. Thanks to its unique properties, water facilitates – and in some cases accelerates – the healing process.

Physical therapy in a pool has become one of the most trusted techniques by centres that offer these treatments. When rehabilitation involves joint work, water becomes an essential element by reducing the stresses of gravity while allowing for a gentle increase in the resistance needed to regain strength.

With highly-specialized needs for athlete rehabilitation, treatment and training, Myrtha’s therapy pools for medical centres, rehab facilities and sport clubs benefit significantly from Myrtha Pools’ flexible, modular solution. The self-supporting structure in a Myrtha installation allows us to efficiently place highly functional therapy pools into what are often small rooms or otherwise limited spaces.

In addition, unlike a conventional pool, Myrtha therapy pools include in their structure the incorporation of seats or steps that greatly facilitate the ease of treatment.

Myrtha Pools has developed a comprehensive range of therapeutic pool accessories, including floor partitions, ergonomic wall handrails and movable floors for progressive treatments. Myrtha pools can be designed also with integrated hydromassage units featuring adjustable flow jets at different heights, as well as benches, wheelchair ramps, disability transfer lifts, underwater windows and transparent walls for monitoring pool activities.
