Hydrotherapy is the use of water in any of its three forms: solid, liquid, or vapor, internally or externally, in the treatment of disease or trauma.  A thermal application on the external areas of the body using hot and cold hydrotherapy will aid and assist the body’s natural healing process.

Properties of water that make it an effective medium for hydrotherapy:

1. Accessible, abundant, affordable
2. Universal solvent
3. Can be used in any form (solid, liquid, gas) within a narrow temperature range
4. High specific heat; excellent abilities to carry and give it heat
5. Compatibility with body. Our bodies are comprised mostly of water
6. Conductivity; transfers quickly and effectively. The transfer of heat in water is 25 times faster than in air
7. Control of temperature is easy
8. Fluidity allows for contouring to any body part, giving full contact to any treated area.
