Hydrotherapy means water therapy. This treatment uses the power of water to promote the body to heal. You use different temperatures of water causing the arteries to expand and contract.When hot water is applied it draws your blood to that area. The increased blood flow brings nutrients, anti-inflammatory factors, and oxygen. Everything your body needs to heal. When you apply cold water it forces your vasculature to contract. This moves stagnant blood, carbon dioxide, lactic acid and waste products to be eliminated from that area. Alternating hot and cold-water applications improves your circulation naturally.
