Hydrotherapy

CALL US TO MAKE A HYDROTHERAPY APPOINTMENT

HYDROTHERAPY

We have an on-site heated indoor hydrotherapy pool that is kept at 31 degrees celsius. It is equipped with an exercise platform to allow you to perform standing exercises, and a chair lift for ease of access.

Hydrotherapy provides many of the conditioning and strength benefits of general exercise without the risk of joint impact injuries. Our therapists create customised pool therapy programs for rehabilitation, therapeutic maintenance, pregnancy, elite athletes, weight loss, pain relief, and cardiovascular training.

Before accessing our hydrotherapy pool it is part of our protocol for all patrons to attend an initial assessment with our physiotherapists or exercise physiologist to screen for safety and create an individualised hydrotherapy program for you. If you have attended another hydrotherapy pool elsewhere and have a current hydrotherapy program, you will need to have a program re-assessment created as our pool is deep water only, if this is the case please tell reception when making an appointment.

In addition to individual hydrotherapy programs, we also run aqua aerobics classes throughout the week. Please call (02) 4721 1222 to find out more details.
