Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy is a treatment modality offered by DiagnoSYS Physiotherapy at appropriate pools located in Cairns CBD (Tobruk Pool), Woree and Smithfield.

Hydrotherapy appointments must be arranged after a dry land physiotherapy assessment in our practice to diagnose and analyse your condition.

What is Hydrotherapy and how does it work?

Hydrotherapy, also known as aquatic physiotherapy and sometimes
aqua aerobics, specifically refers to therapeutic treatment in water utilizing an environment 800 times more dense than air. The aim is to facilitate strengthening and stretching, in a reduced gravity environment, to achieve movement or joint mobility by a qualified physiotherapist.

DiagnoSYS Physiotherapy is able to offer individuals and groups programs to facilitate movement, pain relief, rehabilitation and strengthening programs for the physical disabled, impaired, recovering and individual, aiming to increase their flexibility or to facilitate their potential sporting ability.

Not only is hydrotherapy effective as a treatment option, it is a relaxed and fun environment to enjoy your treatment.
