Aquatic therapy involves exercises performed in water, making use of the natural properties of buoyancy and resistance. It is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. In addition to supporting general health and well-being, it can be particularly beneficial for those living with medical conditions.

Aquatic therapy is especially helpful for older adults and for individuals with musculoskeletal conditions or obesity, where exercising on land may be difficult. The buoyancy of water reduces strain on the spine and joints, making movement easier and less painful. At the same time, the natural resistance of water helps strengthen muscles and improve balance, ensuring a safe but effective workout.

The aim of aquatic therapy is to maintain and improve physical and mental well-being, enhance functional ability, and reduce stress.

The benefits aquatic therapy:

• improves joint mobility
• supports respiratory function and circulation
• may help regulate blood pressure
• provides a gentle whole-body massage and supports metabolic function
• the relaxing properties of water help reduce stress
• regular sessions can improve endurance, balance, and coordination

Sessions are led by a physiotherapist and involve 30 minutes of guided exercise, with particular emphasis on body awareness. Each session concludes with stretching. Equipment such as hydrotherapy noodles, water dumbbells, kickboards, and pool wall bars may be used.

Please arrive 10–15 minutes before your session to allow time for changing and showering. A swimming cap is mandatory.

Water is a natural environment for babies, as they develop in fluid before birth. Baby swimming can usually begin from the first month of life, once the umbilical cord has healed and the baby’s natural skin barrier has developed.

Sessions for babies and toddlers are held at Haabersti Health Centre, 179 Õismäe tee.

Group classes take place in a 1.2-metre-deep pool and are attended by a parent or caregiver. Children are grouped according to age. Each session lasts 30 minutes.

Bookings and cancellations can be made by calling 626 1314 or in person at any West Tallinn Central Hospital health centre reception desk.

The pool water temperature is maintained at 32–34 degrees, and the ambient air temperature is 26–27 degrees. To help maintain water hygiene, all children must wear a swim nappy or swimming trunks. Parents are asked to tie back long hair or wear a swimming cap.

After swimming, it is possible to use the infant feeding room, where the baby can cool down, eat, and rest.
‍

During the swim, the physiotherapist teaches the child about their body sensations through various postures and movements: lying on their back and front, moving on their side, in horizontal and vertical positions, as well as through gentle jumping and submersion activities.

‍Swimming is useful because it ensures faster physical, mental, and emotional development of the child by:

• encouraging coordinated movement of arms and legs
• developing balance
• helping to strengthen weaker muscles and relax tense muscles
• promoting motor development, such as rolling and crawling
• supporting healthy heart and lung function
• strengthening parent–child bonding
• encouraging concentration and body awareness
• supporting social interaction in a group setting
• promoting relaxation and improved sleep

Massage is an important component of rehabilitation and may help to:

• prevent health problems
• accelerate recovery from diseases
• reduce pain
• relieve muscle tension
• increase a person's sense of well-being
  

Massage can be beneficial for joint conditions, lower back pain, and recovery following injury. It may also help stimulate blood and lymphatic circulation, support metabolic function, and reduce headaches and muscle pain.

Access to massage therapy requires a referral from a GP, rehabilitation specialist, or other consultant.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy helps you learn to use your pelvic floor muscles more effectively to improve bladder and bowel control.

Muscle function is assessed during activity, and objective feedback is provided. Where appropriate, electrotherapy may be added to support the exercise programme.

One treatment option offered is transcutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation (TPTNS). This is a procedure that uses mild electrical stimulation to influence the nervous system and improve bladder and bowel control.

The posterior tibial nerve runs along the back of the lower legand is connected, via nerve pathways, to the nerves that regulate bladder function. Gentle electrical impulses stimulate this nerve, helping to improve communication within the nervous system. This can support better control of bladder contractions and help reduce urinary urgency and incontinence.

Contraindications

TPTNS is not suitable for individuals who have a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator, are prone to significant bleeding, have peripheral nerve damage, are pregnant or planning to become pregnant during the course of treatment, have a diagnosed malignant tumour, or have metal implants in the treatment area. The procedure should also be postponed during menstruation, in the presence of a headache, or during an acute illness or flare-up of a chronic condition.
