What is Hydrotherapy?

Hydrotherapy is the union of aquatic exercises and Physiotherapy. It is a therapeutic approach that uses aquatic exercises designed to aid in the rehabilitation of various conditions. The warmth (approximately 34 degrees) and buoyancy of the water promote muscle and joint relaxation thereby allowing participants to perform exercise much more comfortably.

Hydrotherapy can be very useful in isolation or as part of Physiotherapy management for a variety of musculoskeletal and neurological conditions.

Benefits of Hydrotherapy:

• Decreased “weight” as a result of buoyancy
• Relaxation of muscles and joints in warm water
• Improved mobility
• Suitable for patients post joint replacement surgeries (hip and knee)
• Improved balance
• Increased strength

What to bring:

• Bathers
• Soap for shower
• Towel
• Drink bottle
