AquaRoll® Aquatic Therapy

AquaRoll relies on nature’s most basic movement – the wave. Unlike other aquatic treatments that utilize water alone, AquaRoll incorporates over 30,000 glass beads. The beads and water combine in a soothing rotational movement, creating a simultaneous compression, percussion, and vibratory effects.

Benefits of AquaRoll Therapy

• Percussion stimulates increased blood flow to injured tissue. AquaRoll enhances recovery and accelerates healing potential by increasing blood flow to the injured tissues.

• Blood circulation is one of the most important functions in the body. It supplies red blood cells which carry oxygen to our bones, muscles, and all other vital components of our bodies to the cellular level. Without oxygenating the damaged and injured
tissues, it is impossible for them to heal.

• Compression by the water and 36 pounds of rotating glass beads massages the treatment area and consistently decreases lymphedema and swelling.

• Vibration soothes nerve pain and desensitises agitated nerves. There is a net calming effect by overstimulating the nerve via vibration and gentle rhythmic compression. This beneficial outcome is a direct result of decreasing the nerve hypersensitivity.
