Procedures in Abano Terme
Vertical bath
Vertical bath is a physiotherapeutic procedure that is performed to stretch the spine. The procedure is carried out in several cycles: first, under the guidance of a physiotherapist, the patient does several exercises in the water to stretch the back muscles, then the patient hangs on special devices (vertical board, trapezium) and his spine is pulled out under natural body weight. This procedure promotes the release of stranded nerves in the intervertebral discs, has a relief effect on the spine and relieves pain. Vertical baths are contraindicated for patients with large hernias, which, on the recommendation of a physician, should be surgically removed.

Water treadmill
Water treadmill is a tank filled with water, in which a moving canvas is installed. It is used for the rehabilitation of patients with post-traumatic and postoperative conditions of the musculoskeletal system. Water softens the load directly on the bones and cartilage, but the density of the water itself puts additional strain on the muscles, forcing them to work harder. This procedure is also effective for reducing excess body weight: during traditional running, approximately 8 calories per minute are burned, while in water running, up to 12 calories are burned.
