Swimming is an excellent form of exercise that involves minimal joint loading and permits ease of movement. It can help improve your flexibility, strength , endurance and aerobic capacity. When you swim, 90% of your body weight is eliminated which makes it stress free for your joints.
Many medical professionals advise patients “to swim” for chronic musculoskeletal issues and other medical conditions. Often however, there is no more specific advice given than “to swim”. PhysioSwim seeks to address this and provide specific advice regarding suitable or modified strokes while taking into account your injuries or medical conditions. It is suitable for any level swimmer from complete beginner to advanced.
PhysioSwim is available following an initial dryland assessment and is booked as a block of four sessions on a 1:1 basis.
