An underwater treadmill is a treadmill that is submerged in water and provides exercises for people who have undergone a complete replacement of the hip joint. An underwater treadmill is a key component in rehabilitation centers for increasing muscle strength and hip movement. It is also used in veterinarians to improve the movement of animals, such as dogs, horses, etc., it increases their resistance and makes their movements faster and smoother.
The underwater treadmill consists of a treadmill immersed in a water pool. The water pool on the underwater treadmill is usually maintained at the height of the chest of a person to whom doctors recommend exercises or recommended by medical specialists. Then a person walks or runs at will on an underwater treadmill. The underwater treadmill has a conveyor belt on which a person walks or runs. The moving belt of the underwater treadmill responds to the input it receives from the user's exercise or feet. During a workout on an underwater treadmill, resistance is provided by the surface area of the body of the user moving through the water. The pace of the walk on the underwater treadmill is then slightly increased to significantly increase the resistance.
An increase in the pace of walking is balanced by the natural resistance exerted by water in contact with the human body during an exercise on an underwater treadmill. This gradually increases movement, muscle strength and strengthens the thigh.
An underwater treadmill exercise is recommended under the supervision of a licensed physiotherapist, physician, medical specialist or therapist who has received individual training in the physical rehabilitation of patients.
Underwater treadmill is used for walking and back during aquatic therapy. An underwater treadmill used during aquatic therapy can cure problems related to abdominal, dorsal, knee, and strengthen muscles / thighs. Underwater treadmill offers walking, step back and retro walks.
An underwater treadmill helps trainers that have undergone complete hip replacement to return to normal operation. Before training on an underwater treadmill, these patients struggle to maintain normal gait coordination, range of motion in the area of the hip joint and the hip joint. Exercising on an underwater treadmill solves these problems for patients. Hip replacements recommend starting their rehabilitation work after an operation with exercises on an underwater treadmill. Underwater treadmill exercises are recommended by sports medicine specialists and physiotherapists.
An underwater treadmill offers the potential advantage of buoyancy while walking on a treadmill. Exercise on an underwater treadmill eliminates the need for a newly remodeled hip to maintain full body weight at every stage of the walk. During a workout on an underwater treadmill, water provides a soft resistance to human movement, which allows them to strengthen the muscles of the hip and hip joint over time.
Patients at rehabilitation centers use underwater treadmills to minimize postoperative edema, increase muscle strength, and encourage early use of the guided limb. In rehabilitation centers, the underwater treadmill is part of the DVSC program.
The underwater treadmill includes direct or reverse propulsion of the treadmill, including a back stop or retro walking, as well as a unique exercise to strengthen the back and abdomen. The design of the underwater treadmill is safe and secure for all pool users without sharp edges or protrusions. Exercise on the underwater treadmill can be performed with bare legs. No electromechanical or electronic components should be attached to the body during training on an underwater treadmill. Underwater treadmills are made of robust construction that is imperfect for pool chemicals, which allows you to dive continuously without the need for any maintenance.
An underwater treadmill improves thigh grip and gait resistance during the critical rehabilitation period after surgery. The underwater treadmill is safe, but is recommended under the supervision of medical specialists, doctors and physical therapists.
