The main advantages of POOLBIKING / POOLTREKKING machines are related to biomechanics, hydrodynamics and progressive water resistance. All technicians who attest the results have collaborated with their ideas and design proposals. The Rehabilitation division listens to and studies with particular attention the advice received by such professionals. We have not forgotten our patients who with their results validate the effectiveness of our machines.
