SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING DRY HYDROTHERAPY TO A RECLINED HUMAN SUBJECT

摘要

Systems and methods for providing dry hydrotherapy to a reclined human subject in a home or commercial environment. The systems (10), include an enclosed tub (38), with an external support frame and an internal operational frame. The enclosed tub (38), includes a multi-layer cover upon which the human subject may recline to receive the hydrotherapy. The cover includes an open netting layer (44), attached to a perimeter edge of the tub for supporting the weight of the user and a pliable waterproof layer positioned over the netting for containing the liquid used in the hydrotherapy while still transferring the massaging force of the liquid to the user. The liquid is directed under pressure against the underside of the cover with a moveable liquid jet source positioned on a track with the tub.
