Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy 

 

We are very lucky to have our own Hydrotherapy pool in school. Hydrotherapy is offered to pupils with significantly restricted movement, pupils with PMLD (Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities) and ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder). It allows pupils to move freely and have therapy in the water. 

Hydrotherapy is aimed at pupils with limited mobility. They will benefit from a range of therapeutic methods that take advantage of the physical properties of water, such as temperature and pressure. Many pupils will complete their physiotherapy exercises in the hydrotherapy pool.
