Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy is the use of water to assist in the rehabilitation of people with movement disorders.

Immersion in water can assist with strengthening, balance, gait re-education. It can also be used to help with relaxation!

At Bristol neurophysio, we have extensive experience of working with people with neurological conditions in hydrotherapy pools.

We have extensive knowledge of the pools in Bristol and the surrounding area that are suitable for water-based activities, with consideration of various access requirements. Depending on your individual needs it may be best to work with you in a specialist hydrotherapy pool; or often it may be possible to implement water-based exercise and therapy at your local public swimming pool.

Some kind words

I would just like to let everyone know how happy I am since starting treatment at Bristol Neurophysio.  I have noticed a great beneficial change to my condition, ataxia.  It's been such a relief for me to find someone who understands my condition and is able to set up a programme suitable for my abilities.  Kirsty is always upbeat and cheerful and is always a great help.  I come away from my sessions feeling so much better and able to get on with my life!
