Scientifically speaking, hydrotherapy stimulates the body’s ability to heal by manipulating temperature and altering the rate of blood flow throughout the body. Recently, using hydrotherapy to raise the core body temperature or the temperature in a localized region of the body (referred to in the medical literature as hyperthermia) has gained popularity in the treatment of disease, but hydrotherapy has been used for centuries to address a variety of disorders.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1518176053836{margin-bottom: 34px !important;}”]

Scientifically speaking, hydrotherapy stimulates the body’s own ability to heal by manipulating temperature, which activates the immune system and alters the rate of blood flow throughout the body.

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]At Focus Integrative Healthcare, we use hydrotherapy to support optimal wellness in a variety of different cases, including:

acute illnesses like colds and the flu,
other conditions where modulating the immune system would be beneficial such as autoimmune disorders and various types of cancer;
conditions where calming the nervous system would be beneficial such as anxiety and insomnia;
cases of digestive disorders such as chronic indigestion, Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis;
inflammatory conditions such as arthritis;
conditions where cleansing and detoxification would be of benefit such as Hashimoto’s, PCOS, addiction recovery support, and fertility support;
and more.

Your doctor may recommend hydrotherapy for you if indicated.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”16px”][vc_custom_heading text=”Initial Consultation FAQs” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_tta_accordion active_section=”1″][vc_tta_section title=”What hydrotherapy procedures are available?” tab_id=”1480826886636-2d3da574-4acf9739-b4ecf482-9c469f61-b488121c-e6da”][vc_column_text]We currently offer the steam cabinet procedure as our preferred method of hydrotherapy.

Females have the option of receiving the majority of hydrotherapy procedures that we provide either on bare skin or wearing a thin sports bra or swim suit top if it makes them feel more comfortable. Males may wear swimming trunks for their hydrotherapy procedures.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”How long can I expect to spend at my hydrotherapy procedure?” tab_id=”1480825659007-3cd06aad-edd89739-b4ecf482-9c469f61-b488121c-e6da”][vc_column_text]You can expect to spend 45 minutes at each steam cabinet session and 60 minutes at each fomentation, fever bath, or wet sheet wrap procedure.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What if I am unable to keep my appointment?” tab_id=”1480982198063-1a0905c7-fc58f482-9c469f61-b488121c-e6da”][vc_column_text]At Focus Integrative Healthcare, we are committed to providing each of our clients with exceptional care. If you cancel without giving enough notice, you are preventing others from being seen during your scheduled appointment time. In order to ensure that we make the best use of our time and are able to provide you with the best care possible, we require 48 hours notice received during our normal business hours for canceled or rescheduled appointments. If you fail to notify us of a missed therapy appointment 48 hours before your scheduled appointment time, you will be charged the full cost of the therapy appointment. If you reschedule your appointment without giving 48 hours advance notice, you will be required to pay the no-show/late cancellation fee before your appointment can be rescheduled.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″ offset=”vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][stm_sidebar sidebar=”573″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” content_placement=”middle” el_class=”third_bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1482310614148{margin-bottom: -140px !important;border-bottom-width: 00px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_cta h2=”Inquire about a consultation today!” h2_font_container=”font_size:20px|color:%23000000|line_height:24px” h2_use_theme_fonts=”yes” shape=”square” style=”flat” add_button=”right” btn_title=”give us a call” btn_style=”flat” btn_color=”theme_style_2″ btn_align=”right” btn_i_align=”right” btn_i_icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-chevron-right” btn_add_icon=”true” btn_button_block=”true” el_class=”third_bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1553034143232{margin-bottom: 00px !important;border-bottom-width: 00px !important;}” use_custom_fonts_h2=”true” btn_link=”url:tel%3A4045329548||”][/vc_cta][/vc_column][/vc_row]
