How Hydrotherapy Helps
Hydrotherapy (also known as aquatic physiotherapy) is ideal for:
- Arthritis or joint pain
- Recovery from fractures
- Back pain and stiffness
- Sports injuries and general mobility issues
- Post surgery recovery (hip and knee replacements, spinal surgery)
Warm water, heated to 34 degrees supports your body, easing pain while helping you to move more freely.
Access is via easy access stairs with rails or seated hoist.
We have 4 private changing rooms with showers.

What to Expect
- Initial assessment: We review your condition and goals, your therapist designs a water based programme just for you
- Supervised sessions: Sessions are guided to ensure correct movement and safety
- Progress Tracking: We monitor your improvement and adapt exercises as you recover and improve
There are different options and classes available to you to ensure treatment is tailored to you:
One to One Sessions (£65)
Your therapist will be with you in the water and will guide you through a rehabilitation programme specifically for you to improve your mobility and/or aid your recovery following surgery or accident
Self Treatment Sessions (£20)
This is for patients who have seen one of our therapists and they have set up a unique exercise programme for you. These sessions allow you to exercise with others while following your own programme.
You will need a one to one session prior to using the self treatment sessions so we understand your goals.
