Hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy, a specialised form of physiotherapy, it uses the therapeutic properties of water to address various physical conditions. This innovative approach harnesses water's buoyancy and resistance to aid in the rehabilitation and management of injuries.
In hydrotherapy, patients perform exercises in a heated pool, which promotes relaxation, eases muscle tension, and increases circulation. The reduced impact on joints due to buoyancy makes it ideal for conditions like arthritis, back pain, and post-surgical recovery. Additionally, the resistance of water provides a gentle way to improve strength and flexibility.
Hydrotherapy offers a wide range of benefits. It enhances cardiovascular fitness, reduces pain, and promotes overall well-being. The warm water can help soothe sore muscles and alleviate discomfort, while the controlled environment allows physiotherapists to tailor exercises to individual needs.
We have a Physioptherapist available at Bayswater Waves on Fridays and services at other pools are available on request. Call 0477 934 546 today to book your initial hydrotherapy assessment.

Osteoarthritis and Exercise
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease affecting the joints of the body, especially the hips, knees, spine and hands. The symptoms of OA are usually pain and difficulty moving the joint. Because of this, people living with OA can tend to avoid activity leading to weaker muscles and joint instability as well as other health problems linked to being sedentary. Although OA is often described as resulting from wear and tear, inflammation of the joint is involved and people often experience flare-ups together with periods of reduced symptoms.
It may seem strange that exercising a painful joint can help, but exercise has been shown to actually improve joint health as well as reducing pain. We know that exercise helps to strengthen the muscles which support and stabilise the joint. Exercise can also help to improve joint movement and flexibility, making it easier to carry out daily tasks. There are many different types of exercise which are appropriate for people living with OA including tai chi, water exercise, resistance or aerobic training. The best exercise to do is one that you enjoy and that fits in with your daily life.
Our team of Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists can work with you to develop an exercise program that is suited to your particular needs and preferences.
