Removable Stainless Steel Support Bars

Lightweight multi-functional and positional bars ensure patient comfort and security.

Automatic Water Leveling System

The automatic water leveling system detects the decreasing water level as a result of evaporation or splashing and automatically maintains the water level.

Variable Water Temperature

A fully automated, state-of-the-art-heating unit provides variable water temperature. Electric or gas systems are available.

Why are the 2000 Series pools the most advanced therapy and fitness pool in the world?

• The adjustable pool floor allows the users to walk or be assisted onto the pool floor at deck level and lowered to any water depth up to six feet. As a result, aquatic therapy can be initiated earlier in rehabilitation for patients with a wide range of injuries.
• The completely integrated underwater treadmill allows patients and athletes to correctly simulate land-based biomechanics. Sports specific exercises are especially effective when performed on a large underwater treadmill that allows room for full hip rotation and bounding movements. The large surface area of the treadmill allows for therapy sessions designed to closely simulate the patient or athlete’s particular sport and position.
• The video system allows athletic trainers and physical therapists to diagnose gait patterns, record treatment sessions and document their patient or athlete’s progress. The individual being treated benefits from being able to see himself or herself on the flat screen monitor and execute the desired protocol faster, thus speeding up the healing process.
• The water-resistant hand-held remote controls all functions of the 2000 Series pools. This gives the athletic trainer or physical therapist complete freedom of movement while administering treatment or conditioning sessions.
• Computer documentation: HydroWorx owns the proprietary rights to the software that was written exclusively for the HydroWorx Series pools. The software monitors the pool functions, treadmill speed, and jet power then uses this information to display current session information, and stores the information in a patient database for future reference and progress reports.

What is an example of how the college & pro sports teams utilize the HydroWorx 2000 Series pools?

Multiple-athlete cardiovascular interval training is accomplished with directional resistance jets and the underwater treadmill. Athletes are placed in alignment with two resistance streams that hit the mid-point of the athlete’s chest. The floor can be positioned at various depths to create different loading effects.

Sample Session: Begin the interval with the treadmill speed at 6 mph but without jet resistance. After a warm-up of 5 minutes, increase the treadmill speed to 7.5 mph or higher and activate the jets at a resistance level of the trainers choosing. This will provide a resistance that simulates an intense up-hill run and elevate the athlete’s heart rate. Stop the jet for approximately 20-30 seconds and begin again.
