SERVICES WE PROVIDE: 1 on 1 hydrotherapy
Our trained exercise physiologists will design and guide you through a hydro exercise program specific to your needs. This program is completed entirely in water in our onsite hydrotherapy pool. The buoyancy of the water allows for decreased weight-bearing, which means you can take the load off your joints and often exercise sooner than you would be able to on land. Our onsite hydrotherapy pool is one of the only pools you can access privately in the entire Sydney region.
The temperature of the pool is 34degrees.
Therapeutic benefits of hydrotherapy:
Muscular relaxation/reduction of muscle spasms
Progress weight-bearing capacity of injured lower limbs
Improvements in swelling due to hydrostatic pressure
Increased joint range of motion due to water buoyancy and reduced gravity
Improved muscle strength against water resistance and aquatic equipment
Improved balance and core stability
Improved cardiovascular fitness
Conditions that would benefit from hydrotherapy:
Lower back pain
Arthritis
Postoperative joint replacements
Post orthopedic surgery
Hip, knee, foot, and shoulder injury management
Stroke
Post fractures
Sports injuries
