How it works

Warm water reduces muscle tension and improves pain tolerance. Buoyancy enables movement with reduced mechanical joint and muscle loading. Hydrostatic pressure may reduce peripheral sensitisation.

Warm water (not hot) is ideal — around 32–34°C. Hot water can aggravate some fibromyalgia patients. Used as an entry point for exercise for those who cannot tolerate land-based activity initially.

Getting started

This is a lifestyle-based approach. Start gradually and consult a health professional if you have any concerns about suitability for your situation.
