Aquatic therapy forms part of the physiotherapy treatment for most patients
Sessions take place in the morning and are usually available each week with a specific programme of goals planned.
The warm water can relieve pain and muscle spasm and provide a different means of exercising in.
Qualified physiotherapists deliver treatment within the hydrotherapy pool
Hydrotherapy assistants are available to help prepare patients before and after their treatment, and assist them with showering and dressing before returning to the ward.
