If you’re looking for a low-impact, highly effective way to manage pain, improve mobility, or rebuild strength after surgery, hydrotherapy might be just what you need. At Get Better Physiotherapy and Pilates Centre in Boronia Heights, we offer tailored hydrotherapy programs designed to help you move comfortably and regain your confidence — one step at a time, in the water.

Hydrotherapy, sometimes called aquatic therapy, involves doing guided exercises in a warm pool. The water supports your body, reducing the pressure on joints and muscles while allowing you to move more freely. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or simply want a safe environment to stay active, hydrotherapy offers a proven path forward.

The Benefits of Moving in Water

Water offers unique therapeutic benefits that make it ideal for people of all ages — especially those recovering from injury, surgery, or dealing with chronic pain. The buoyancy reduces your body weight, making movement easier. The warmth helps to soothe stiff muscles and joints. And the gentle resistance of the water strengthens your body without causing further strain.

Unlike traditional gym workouts or even land-based physiotherapy, hydrotherapy allows you to improve strength, flexibility, and circulation — all with less impact on your body.

What We Can Help With

At our Boronia Heights clinic, we use hydrotherapy to support recovery and ongoing health management for a range of conditions, including:

  • Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis
  • Lower back or neck pain
  • Post-surgical rehab (including hip and knee replacements)
  • Muscle weakness following injury or fractures
  • Neurological conditions such as stroke or MS
  • Poor balance and fall prevention
  • Chronic joint pain and mobility limitations
  • Sports injuries or overuse conditions

If you’re unsure whether hydrotherapy is right for your condition, our team is happy to guide you through the options.

A Safe, Supportive Option for Many

You don’t need to be athletic — or even confident in the water — to benefit from hydrotherapy. The pool is warm and shallow, and you’re always supported by our trained staff. It’s a great fit for:

  • Seniors looking for low-impact strength and balance work
  • NDIS participants (self-managed or plan-managed)
  • People with disabilities or chronic conditions
  • Those just starting recovery after surgery or injury
  • Anyone who finds land-based exercise too painful or intimidating

We focus on making every session approachable, effective, and designed around your unique needs.

What to Expect in a Hydrotherapy Session

At Get Better Physiotherapy and Pilates Centre in Boronia Heights, your first session starts with an individual assessment. We learn about your health background, any current injuries, and what you’re hoping to achieve. From there, we design a hydrotherapy program just for you.

Sessions take place in a warm indoor pool. You’ll perform guided exercises with tools like floats, resistance bands, or water weights — depending on what your body needs. Exercises might involve walking through water, stretching, or controlled movements to build balance and strength.

You don’t need to know how to swim, and you’ll never be left to figure things out on your own — one of our team will be by your side the whole time.

Why Clients Trust Our Approach

We’re known for taking the time to really understand our clients — not just their injury, but their lifestyle, their goals, and their comfort level. That’s why our hydrotherapy programs are flexible and responsive. If you’re having a good day, we’ll challenge you a little more. If you’re feeling sore or tired, we adjust the session.

We’re also proud to be a trusted provider for many NDIS clients in the Boronia Heights community and surrounding areas. We make it easy to get started, and we’re happy to coordinate with your plan manager or support coordinator if needed.
