UNDERWATER HYDROMASSAGE TANGENTOR
NEW IN SLOVENIA
At the Ortus Residence, we proudly present TWO new forms of therapy in Slovenia: Tangentor underwater hydromassage and Charcot shower.
WHAT IS THERAPY?
Underwater hydromassage is widely used in the best spas and hydropathic clinics around the world.
Underwater massage is a modern version of massages, also known as tangentor, which uses the temperature of the water in the bath for therapy and the mechanical effect of the water jet. It is a general body massage with a jet of water under a pressure of 2 to 4 atmospheres in a hydromassage tub with a volume of 450-550 liters.
WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS?
Underwater hydromassage helps restore physical and emotional health! It improves blood circulation and lymph flow, helps saturate cells with nutrients and oxygen, and removes toxins from the body.
It is considered an excellent way to lose weight and cellulite. This is due to the fact that the flow of water is directed to problem areas and exerts pressure. Water jets thus activate lymphatic drainage. In this way, the body gets rid of excess fluid containing fat deposits faster.
In the picture above, you can see how the strong jet affects the skin.
Underwater hydromassage is recommended as an additional procedure after sports activities, in the treatment of post-operative conditions, diseases of the locomotor system, problems with the nervous system, and is also recommended in the treatment of circulatory problems and sports injuries.
Underwater hydromassage affects all organ systems:
- musculoskeletal system: rehabilitation and restoration of joint mobility after injuries, back pain, elimination of muscle hypertonicity, but also restoration of muscle tone in case of atrophy.
- nervous system: Neurosis, headache, chronic fatigue syndrome, apathy, depression, vegetative-vascular dystonia.
- cardiovascular system: edema, varicose veins
- digestive system: slow metabolism, excess weight, impaired intestinal motility - constipation.
WHAT ARE THE INDICATIONS?
Massage is indicated for overweight, swelling, cellulite, muscle and joint pain.
Thanks to the soft relaxing effect of water, underwater hydromassage helps to manage stress, depression and chronic fatigue.
WHAT ARE THE CONTRADICTIONS?
Contraindications for underwater hydromassage are acute respiratory infections, strokes and heart attacks, tumors of any etiology, cholelithiasis and kidney stones, cirrhosis of the liver, thrombophlebitis, as well as skin diseases with a violation of the integrity of the skin. It can be performed during a healthy pregnancy, but it cannot be used in acute conditions and illnesses. We also do not recommend performing it in case of oncological diseases and during menstruation.
