Hydrotherapy can be a great form of rehabilitative exercise for those who struggle to exercise on land. The water’s buoyancy reduces the force of gravity through the joints. This can be very effective for those with osteoarthritis, spinal joint pain and nerve-related referred pain as well as other conditions. Anyone needing exercise rehabilitation for their condition can benefit from a hydro session as the physiotherapist will be able to prescribe exercises targeting the right areas and progress them as suited to the individual.
You only need your bathers, a towel and potentially a change of clothes to attend a hydrotherapy session. There is no head submersion so goggles are not necessary. In terms of equipment, the swim centre allows us to access various devices that can be used for exercises such as floating dumbbells, noodles and kickboards.
Our physiotherapist will do their utmost to ensure you are safe and suitable for hydrotherapy. However, there are some conditions that could possibly prevent you from being able to do hydrotherapy. These may include:
