We have joined forces with Valentine Hydrotherapy Pool to bring you group Hydrotherapy classes, run by our physio Bronte Shepherd.

​

Exercise in water is both a safe and fun way to aid recovery from injury. The hydrotherapy pool is heated to 33–35°Celsius and you will be guided by our qualified physiotherapist with exercises tailored to your specific needs. 

​

Therapeutic benefits:

​

• Low impact exercise for stiff or sore joints

• Hydro-static pressure works to positively stimulate blood flow, suppress sympathetic nervous system activity and by doing so, reduce the symptoms of pain and swelling in the extremities.

• Muscle relaxation and reduction in muscle spasm.

• Increase joint range of motion and muscle flexibility.

• Safe environment for balance retraining.

• Improve overall strength and conditioning

​

How do the classes work?

If your physio or doctor has recommended Hydrotherapy for you, then this is the class for you! Before your first class, you will need a land-based assessment, then you can jump in! Although a group class, it will be tailored to your specific needs. 

​

How much will it cost?

The cost per session is: $52.95. Or 3 sessions for $110 as a special introductory price!*
