Benefits of Thermal Water Physiotherapy
Thermal water physiotherapy combines the healing properties of warm mineral water with therapeutic exercise for exceptional health benefits. The buoyancy of water reduces pressure on painful joints while providing natural resistance for strength building.
The 37-degree thermal water at De Bretts Hot Springs helps:
- Relax tight muscles and reduce muscle spasms
- Improve circulation to damaged tissues
- Decrease inflammation in joints
- Enhance range of motion and flexibility
- Build core strength and stability
- Improve balance in a safe, fall-free environment
These sessions are particularly valuable for those managing chronic conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, or recovering from joint replacement surgery. The thermal water creates a supportive environment where movement becomes easier and less painful.
What to bring: Comfortable swimwear, towel, water bottle, and grippy sandals to prevent slipping around the pools. Plenty of free parking is available at the top of the hill, with limited parking at the bottom for those who find the hill challenging.
De Bretts Hot Springs Pool is located at 76 Napier Road, Hilltop, TaupΕ 3379. Join us for a therapeutic experience that combines the natural healing properties of TaupΕ's famous thermal waters with expert physiotherapy guidance.
