Better Health Network (BHN) has been proudly delivering hydrotherapy services to the community for more than 30 years, supporting people to move, recover and feel their best in a safe, warm and supportive environment. Our hydrotherapy programs are offered onsite at Bentleigh East and at the Danny Frawley Centre in Moorabbin, accessed through our Chelsea and Parkdale sites.
Benefits of hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy uses gentle exercise in a heated pool to support recovery from injury, rehabilitation and ongoing physical wellbeing. The warmth and buoyancy of the water reduce pressure on joints and muscles, helping to improve stability, stimulate circulation and strength while easing pain. Alongside the physical benefits, hydrotherapy also promotes relaxation, confidence and overall wellbeing through positive, supportive interactions with staff, volunteers and fellow participants.
Our classes
Our hydrotherapy classes are designed with your health and safety in mind. To help ensure a safe and comfortable experience for everyone, please follow these hydrotherapy guidelines:
- Please shower before entering the pool.
- Do not attend if you are unwell.
- Open wounds or sores must be covered with waterproof dressings.
- Arrive ready to swim, wearing your bathers.
- Please exit promptly after your session to allow the next class to begin (there is a 15 minute gap between classes).
