WILMINGTON, OH July 23, 2003 -- Ferno Performance Pools has added the new, improved AquaCiser® III and the Hydro Track™ 1103 Underwater Treadmill Systems to its complete line of aquatic fitness and therapy products.
The new AquaCiser III now offers a touch-screen console, innovative, personal programming options, and a faster, quieter motor. It also features a self-diagnostic system that will inform the user of any mechanical problems, and will then suggest how to fix them.
The AquaCiser's touch screen makes therapy and exercise programs quick and easy. The temperature, depth, belt direction and speed can all be manipulated from the console's touch screen.
Ferno's AquaCiser III is an excellent choice for the busy hospital, sports medicine or physical therapy clinic, and nursing home because Ferno's unique underwater treadmill design allows users to set personal programming functions for each patient.
"The things you couldn't do with the old screen, you can now do with the touch screen format," Tim Wells, Ferno product manager said. "With the personal programming functions, you can set it up to run a 10-step program," Wells said. A reversible treadmill with a variable speed ranging from 0 to 9.9 mph is one AquaCiser III feature that allows for exact programming for patients at different therapy and exercise levels. Users will also have the ability to store patients' records in the AquaCiser III, and then download them into their PC.
"Another difference between the AquaCiser II and the AquaCiser III is the motor," Wells said. "The new AC motor allows for better speed control, runs smoother and is quieter when in operation."
Other features unique to the AquaCiser III are 12 whirlpool jets and two front workout jets, clear doors and viewing windows, and a patient resting seat. The water is automatically filtered, heated and treated, which makes patient treatment time faster. These features, along with the three to four-minute fill and drain time, make Ferno's AquaCiser III a popular choice for busy therapists.
Also new to Ferno Performance Pools is the Hydro Track 1103, which is ideal for sports clinics, training rooms, therapy clinics with limited space, or for home use.
The Hydro Track 1103 has a reversible treadmill with a variable speed ranging from 3 to 7 mph, and a digital display unit that shows speed, distance and time. It also has a moveable control panel for convenient operation, dual-speed resistance jets, and a complete filtration and heating system.
Ferno Performance Pools' new AquaCiser III and the Hydro Track 1103 provide a wide variety of applications with better outcomes than land-based equipment. Both are perfect for patients limited by pain, weakness or weight-bearing restrictions, and for those that wish to maximize their training and cardiovascular workout. The AquaCiser III and the Hydro Track 1103 use the advantage of water buoyancy and resistance, which reduces the effects of gravity on impact, while still allowing for the maximum workout.
