For many people, a ligament sprain, a muscle strain or a bone fracture has a significant impact on their ability to pursue sport, an exercise programme, or ordinary day-to-day activity.
Proper rehabilitation of these orthopedic injuries is critical in preventing re-injury and in getting you back to pain-free movement.
Aquatic Therapy alongside land-based training is a valuable tool in recovery from strains, sprains and fractures, whatever your activity level.
Rehabilitating these injuries in the water allows for:
Decreased weight bearing means movement can start earlier than land alone would allow.
Water work is combined with a land-based protocol and targeted hands-on manual therapy from your therapist. That combination is what makes the plan specific to your injury rather than generic to the diagnosis.
Sprains, strains and fractures are treated across two of our therapies. Which one is right for you depends on the injury, the stage of healing, and what you are working back toward.
Assessment, hands-on treatment and a plan of care through the stages of healing, from early pain and swelling control to full return to movement.
