Hydrotherapy

Join our hydrotherapy classes in our purpose built warm magnesium pool. The temperature in the pool is always 32- 36 degrees to encourage increased blood flow to muscles. Magnesium has many great benefits including muscle relaxation, improves sleep patterns and sleep quality, reduces stress and detoxifies the body. Our guided hydrotherapy sessions have been purposefully designed to have you leaving the pool feeling great!
