Whirlpool Bath

What is a whirlpool bath

This treatment is taken in a warm bath at the temperature of 33-36°C with currents of whirling water. The whirlpool bath lasts between 15-20 minutes and is followed by a dry wrap and bed rest for another 10-15 minutes. It is an individual procedure.


How a whirlpool bath helps

The effects of whirling and warm water currents are multiple: the vigorous water massage improves blood circulation and metabolism, relaxes stiff muscles, joints and a stressed mind, and stimulates nerve receptors in the skin and dermis to facilitate body awareness.
