“Every time I go down the ramp into the pool, my smile grows”
Nirvana Spa member, June, has found welcome relief from her Osteoarthritis symptoms in the Dead Sea Salt Therapy Pool
June has found sessions in the Nirvana Health Dead Sea Salt Therapy Pool to be an effective way of managing her severe osteoarthritis; a condition which is exacerbated by her autoimmune disorders.
Exercise to ease pain and rehabilitate joint after shoulder injury
Floating in the Dead Sea Salt Pool, supported by 160 tonnes of salt, John has been able to perform gentle movements with ease, in a relaxing environment. Nirvana team devised a tailored programme of twice-weekly sessions that included stretching to increase muscle mobility, foam weights for strengthening and eventually endurance exercises to encourage the muscles to work for longer.
John has been amazed by the results he’s seen already, in only 12 weeks. His range of movement within the water has increased by 20% overall, his posture has improved, his shoulder has dropped and, crucially, he is now entirely pain free. The wider benefits have been immeasurable with improved sleep, increased comfort when driving and a new-found freedom of movement.
