Villapiana, Open Day to discover Hydrokinesitherapy at the municipal swimming pool

VILLAPIANA. Doors open to the municipal swimming pool of Villapiana for the official presentation of this year’s important novelty consisting of Hydrokinesitherapy, a well-known technique considered effective by experts for the treatment of movement disorders through immersion in water of which, as reported a press note released by the municipal house exploits physical properties such as buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure and temperature. Hydrokinesistherapy is actually a technique already known in ancient history when it was used as a specific method of prevention, rehabilitation and treatment of general traumas, sports traumas and for the post-operative recovery of meniscus injuries, fractures, sprains, muscle and tendon injuries. Thursday 31 October, as reported in the aforementioned note, from 3.00 pm to 5.00 pm the doors of the municipal swimming pool of Villapiana will be open for the presentation of the new course desired and supported by the municipal administration led by the mayor Vincenzo Ventimiglia. «The important rehabilitation therapy service in water – as explained by Councilor Domenico Muscolini – offers techniques and exercises aimed at rehabilitation in water, which integrate traditional therapies and aims to treat the difficulties of movement through water, taking advantage of physical properties such as buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure and temperature and is indicated as a specific method of prevention, treatment and rehabilitation for general traumas, sports injuries and for post-recovery
operation.” On this occasion, Dr. Nicoletta Tufaro and Chiara Troiano, physiotherapists who wanted to embrace the project of the municipal administration, will be present at the Open day to explain and illustrate the techniques of hydrokinesitherapy and will lend their assistance for the test in water which it can be carried out as early as Thursday 31 October. In reality what happens in water is that, due to the effect of the buoyancy force, the weight of the body decreases, the movements are wider and freer, the muscular effort is reduced and, with it, due to the analgesic effect of the water, the joint pain subsides. Appointment for Thursday 31 October therefore, also to inaugurate the
new winter season and contribute to enhancing the Villapiana Olympic swimming pool as a supra-municipal structure available to the entire district.
