Hydrotherapy

(NB. We tend to refer our patients to specialist hydrotherapy physiotherapists when we feel that this form of rehabilitation would be beneficial to recovery)

Hydrotherapy is exercise based treatment performed in a heated swimming pool. It is usually not just swimming but more specific water-based exercises, individually tailored to the patient and their presenting condition. This form of exercise can assist in the rehabilitation of specific complaints where land-based programmes are limited or too stressful.
