Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy is a gentle, effective way to recover, relieve pain and improve your health. Water takes the load off your joints so you can do exercises that might be hard — or impossible — on land.

Who is hydrotherapy for?

  • Post-operative recovery — start walking and moving earlier with less load
  • Chronic pain — a gentler alternative when land exercise feels too much
  • Neurological conditions such as stroke, MS and Parkinson's disease
  • Stable cardiovascular conditions — safely build fitness and strength
  • Rebuilding strength after illness or a long period of inactivity

How do I get started?

Your journey starts with a one-off hydrotherapy assessment with one of our physiotherapists. They'll review your history, assess your strength, mobility and balance and design a program for your goals. In class, your physio demonstrates each exercise and helps you along the way.
