It has been developed to help maintain and improve functional capacity through individually targeted exercises. Each participant will have their own program specific to their needs and abilities, and all sessions are led by a physiotherapist with specific experience in amputee rehabilitation. The exercises are prescribed to improve balance, coordination, strength and endurance.

Our physiotherapists are on hand to answer any questions, fine tune techniques, adjust the challenge of different exercise, and promote support between participants. Having multiple amputees in the same environment enables participants to share stories, discuss challenges they face and offer advice and support for each other related the issues they face on a daily basis. We aim to create a safe, enjoyable and challenging experience for amputees that allows them to maintain their mobility, activity and independent.

We accept amputees on NDIS, other insurance programs or who pay privately. If you are interested in joining one of our classes, please contact the clinic or call (02) 6210 0060 to find out more.

Aquatic Physiotherapy

Aquatic physiotherapy uses water-based exercises to reduce strain on the body. This can be beneficial in training specific areas of the body or for the treatment of pain, weakness and restricted joint function.

Aquatic physiotherapy

Aquatic physiotherapy is a form of physiotherapy treatment conducted in a heated therapy pool. Water-based exercises are commonly used to improve range of motion, strength, stability (balance), coordination, pain, spasms and spasticity (a neurological symptom). Aquatic physiotherapy can improve the effectiveness of therapy by reducing strain on the body, which can be beneficial in treatment of pain, weakness and restricted joint function.

Our aquatic physiotherapy treatments include 1-on-1 treatments with physiotherapists employing individualised, specially designed exercises. Aquatic physiotherapy is particularly beneficial for complex conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, brain injury, spinal cord injury, cerebral palsy, stroke, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome. Clients with mobility difficulties are able to access the pool with the support of our therapists using a hoist and sling, or on a ramp in a chair.

Specialised Movement

Specialised movement and classes are taught by our physiotherapists who combine a strong understanding of anatomy and physiology with exercise, rehabilitation and movement principles.

Specialised movement

Yoga is an ancient practice meaning union or harmony of body, breath and mind. Our yoga and movement therapy improves physical and mental health and wellbeing through an individualised approach to suit all abilities and stages of rehabilitation from injury.

Our approach is not a one-size-fits-all model, but rather a personalised approach with class sizes kept small and held in a safe and private environment.

Yoga and specialised movement can help with the management of anxiety, depression, fatigue, osteoarthritis, and various musculoskeletal and neuromuscular disorders. It can improve balance, mobility, strength and flexibility in various populations and medical contexts.

You will learn a range of techniques, including postures and movement, breath awareness, relaxation and meditation. Yoga has helped many of our clients from all ages and capabilities, from novices to seniors to professional athletes and is a great complimentary therapy for Parkinson’s Disease and other neurological conditions. Ultimately the goal of yoga and movement is to improve your experience and confidence of being in body and to help calm the nervous system.
