Hydrotherapy — is the use of water in the form of general and local baths, showers for therapeutic and preventive purposes. In classical hydrotherapy, baths have been used only with fresh water since ancient times: general (full), when the patient’s entire body up to the chin and back of the head is immersed in the bath; — local baths for various parts of the body — nasal cavity, oral cavity, half-bath, sedentary, torso bath, for lower and upper extremities.
Therapeutic baths
Pearl bath (Ozonomatic device) — enriched with ozone, massages the body with a huge amount of air bubbles, which allows the body to restore strength after a hard day. Rejuvenates the skin and makes it firm and elastic. Stimulates blood circulation. Enriches with oxygen. Stimulates the activity of lymph nodes, improves hydrosalt balance. Ozone oxidizes fats and forms peroxides – substances harmful to viruses, bacteria and fungi.
For mineral bathscalcium-sodium chloride brines containing bromine are used, wells in Svetlogorsk. They help eliminate dystonia, improve capillary blood flow, and reduce chronic venous insufficiency. Active bromine ions, absorbed through the skin into the blood, have a good calming effect. Jet contrast 4-chamber bath – contributes to the normalization of impaired blood circulation and thermoregulation. They have a beneficial effect on patients with metabolic disorders and autonomic nervous system disorders. The contrast procedure serves as a training for blood vessels and improves blood circulation.
Galvanic 4-chamber bath — designed to use the effects of galvanic current from the aquatic environment on the upper and lower extremities for disorders of the nervous system, degenerative and chronic inflammatory diseases of the musculoskeletal system, conditions after injuries, muscle cramps, restless leg syndrome. Whirlpool baths of the upper and lower extremities – used for hydrotherapy procedures for conditions after injuries, inflammation of the limbs, disorders of the nervous system, depletion of the neuromuscular system after excessive physical exertion.
Whirlpool sitz bath — provides hydromassage of the lower extremities, partially provides the possibility of massage of the vertebral apparatus. Used for hydrotherapy procedures for conditions after injuries, inflammation, disorders of the nervous system, depletion of the neuromuscular system of the extremities.

Therapeutic effects: tonic, calms the nervous system, antispasmodic, improves metabolic processes, immunostimulating (increases the body's defenses), training effect on the cardiovascular and muscular systems of the body.
Hydrotherapy procedures in which the human body is exposed to a stream or many streams of water of various shapes, temperatures and pressures.
Circular — medium pressure shower, used for neurocirculatory dystonia, the initial stages of hypertension, and fatigue. The body is exposed to many thin horizontal jets directed at it under increased pressure.
Charcot — high-pressure shower, used to increase muscle tone and reduce the thickness of the fat layer, for osteochondrosis of the spine and primary osteoarthrosis, in the complex therapy of neuroses, neurocircular dystonia, arterial hypertension of I and II degrees, neurogenic forms of chemical potency, insomnia, constipation.
Rising — Perineal douche is used for postatitis, sexual weakness, rectal fissures, weakness of the perineal muscles with rectal prolapse, hemorrhoids, prostatitis, sexual neurosis, weakness of the anal sphincter.
Hydromassage
This is a hydrotherapy procedure in which the patient’s body, immersed in a bath, is massaged with a stream of water supplied under pressure through a hose. Water jet massage significantly improves blood and lymph circulation, stimulates metabolism and trophic processes in tissues, and promotes the fastest resorption of inflammatory foci in them. This is one of the best general procedures.
Indications for hydromassage are the consequences of diseases and injuries of the musculoskeletal system (spine, joints, muscles, tendons) spinal pathology, myelopathy), mono- and polyneuropathy, radiculoneuropathy, ankylosing spondylitis, cerebral palsy, progressive muscular dystrophy, flaccid granulating wounds, varicose ulcers, fat metabolism disorders, pathological menopause.
