Hydrotherapy Physiotherapy – Water-Based Rehab for Strength & Mobility
What is Hydrotherapy?
Hydrotherapy, also referred to as physiotherapy in the water, is a type of rehabilitation that is performed in a pool that is heated. It makes use of the natural properties of water, such as warmth, buoyancy, and resistance to create a low-impact and highly effective setting to help recover.
It is ideal for people with arthritis, neurological issues and post-operative needs for recovery or general mobility issues. Hydrotherapy lets you move with less strain on your body. Our skilled physiotherapists guide every session to increase endurance and flexibility, circulation and self-confidence. If you’re recovering from surgery, or dealing with a chronic illness, hydrotherapy provides a secure and comfortable environment to progress without discomfort or the fear of falling.
