Activities: Hydrotherapy & Gym exerciseWho we are
The group was set up in January 1990; patients are typically referred to us by their consultants, GP or physiotherapist.
The main aims of treatment are maintenance and improvement of movement ranges of both spinal and peripheral joints to prevent severe deformity. The emphasis is on soft tissue stretching to prevent shortening of these structures, improve physical endurance and fitness and improve muscle strength especially of the anti gravity muscles.
What we do
The group employs two qualified physiotherapists who attend every week to take the gym exercise sessions.
Within the group environment we aim to motivate the members to continue with daily exercises at home and so take responsibility for their own management.
