Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy involves exercise and physiotherapy in a swimming pool. Hydrotherapy is extremely effective in aiding pain relief and rehabilitation, and promoting general fitness and a sense of well-being. The benefits of water therapy are well documented. Research has shown that hydrotherapy is extremely effective in aiding pain relief and rehabilitation, as well as promoting general fitness and well-being.

Hydrotherapy is also a particularly effective form of rehabilitation, as the therapeutic effects of buoyancy and turbulence, combined with warm water, help reduce pain and muscle spasm. In other words, hydrotherapy is a particularly effective form of both exercise and rehabilitation, because it helps to keep muscles toned which maximises balance and mobility.

One of the greatest benefits of hydrotherapy is its potential to reduce falls, as it helps to keep muscles strong which maximises balance and mobility. This gentle form of exercise is recognised as one of the most beneficial physiotherapy techniques in the treatment of:
