The AQUAI hydromassage bath at ARCADA offers a uniquely accessible form of hydrotherapy: the patient does not get wet. A hydroisolation membrane separates the body from the water circuit, while high-pressure nozzles deliver a powerful water massage through the membrane at constant temperature. This makes AQUAI suitable for patients who cannot tolerate conventional wet hydrotherapy — including those with severe CNS damage, skin conditions, or reduced mobility. The system activates metabolism, significantly improves blood circulation, stimulates endorphin production, and increases pain tolerance. At ARCADA, it is used both within rehabilitation programme blocks and as a standalone wellness session for self-paying visitors.
About this treatment
AQUAI is a specialised dry hydromassage system designed for clinical and rehabilitation environments where conventional hydrotherapy presents practical barriers. The technology uses a waterproof hydroisolation membrane that the patient lies on, while high-pressure water jets beneath the membrane deliver a controlled hydrotherapeutic massage effect across the body. Water temperature is maintained at a constant comfortable level throughout, and the pressure…
The primary advantage of the dry format is accessibility: no undressing to swimwear, no risk of skin maceration, no contraindication from wound dressings or medical devices attached to the skin surface. This makes AQUAI the hydrotherapy of choice for ARCADA's neurorehabilitation patients — including those with cerebral palsy, stroke sequelae, or other conditions that make transfers to wet environments complex — while equally serving wellness visitors who…
Physiological effects documented for AQUAI-type dry hydromassage include: mechanical stimulation of subcutaneous and deep muscle tissue (similar to manual massage but more uniform across the body), acceleration of lymphatic drainage, improved peripheral blood circulation, reduction of muscle tension and spasm, endorphin release (contributing to mood elevation and pain threshold increase), and metabolic activation via thermal and mechanical stimulation of…

What clients say
"Davídek came to ARCADA with a diagnosis of cerebral palsy. After intensive neurorehabilitation, his motor development improved in ways his family had not expected — ARCADA's team worked with him individually every day of the 14-day block. (Patient story from arcada-center.com)"
"Kamilka's story shows what intensive therapy can achieve: consistent progress across multiple programme blocks, with the ARCA cage and TheraSuit method making the difference for her movement control. (Patient story from arcada-center.com)"
