Pool Classes

Arthritis Classes

are run daily in the pool and are designed to improve the flexibility, muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness of those who find exercise on land difficult. Some classes are more biased towards cardiovascular fitness and others towards mobility exercises. These classes are suitable for people with moderate to severe arthritic conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. People with moderate to severe reduction in mobility may also attend, including those with chronic low back pain.

Vigorous Arthritis/Healthy Pregnancy Class

is run on Saturday mornings. It provides a more vigorous workout aimed at improving flexibility, strength and cardiovascular fitness with the emphasis being more on high level mobility work. As well as being ideal for those with mild to moderate arthritis conditions, this class is also designed to meet the needs of pregnant women.  

Pool Pilates/Healthy Pregnancy Classes

are run twice a week at times suitable for people in full time work. The classes incorporate aspects of core stability, as well as exercises that promote flexibility, strength and cardiovascular fitness. They are ideally suited to people with chronic neck and back pain, patients with mild to moderate arthritic conditions, and pregnant women.

Supervised Hydrotherapy Classes

are conducted three times a week and are designed for clients to carry out individual exercise programs under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Post operative conditions such as Total Hip and Knee Replacements, Spinal surgery and some medical conditions are most suited to this class.  In each case, the treating therapist will provide the individual with a specific program before they commence. The program is then monitored and progressed as appropriate. Each client is required to be reviewed regularly by the treating therapist to ensure the program is meeting the treatment goals.
