A spa hydrotherapy pool is a warm pool, usually 33 to 36°C, fitted with underwater jets, air-bubble loungers, swan-neck water cascades and massage stations positioned for the back, shoulders and legs. Moving between the stations gives the muscles a firm, continuous water massage, and the warm water takes weight off the joints. Some spas use the term for outdoor vitality pools and hot tubs as well.
It is a different thing from clinical hydrotherapy, which is physiotherapy carried out in a warm pool under a physiotherapist and is used in rehabilitation for arthritis and injury, sometimes on the NHS. Wellness centres in this directory list spa hydrotherapy pools; a few also host private aquatic physiotherapy sessions, which the listing will state.
Access usually comes with a facilities pass or spa day, around £25 to £60 for a few hours; a private 30-minute clinical session costs about £50 to £80. Keep sessions to 15 to 20 minutes at a time in the warmest pools, and check with your doctor if you are pregnant, have low or high blood pressure or a heart condition.

The City Centre holds the hotel spas and the restored Victorian city baths, while the Quayside's riverside hotels sell spa days and evening packages that book out fast on weekends when the city fills with celebrations. Jesmond is the residential heart of it, with independent wellness centres, yoga studios and complementary practitioners around Osborne Road and a loyal, repeat clientele. Gosforth is quieter and books further ahead, with Pilates, reflexology and mindfulness courses well represented.
