Something we have been doing for a little while now, is sending our service users over to a Hydro-pool weekly. The service users who have been taking advantage of this have been loving this as it gets them out of their house, the unit and gives them somewhere else to gain more confidence along with gaining the benefits of the Hydro-pool paired with Fibromyalgia.
Some benefits of the Hydro-pool can be seen below;
- Reduce stress on painful joints
- Help to relax your body and reduce feelings of stress
- Increase the body’s circulation
- Reduce stiffness and spasms allowing for a greater range of exercises than land-based activities
More information regarding the beneficial effects of Hydro-pool for Fibromyalgia sufferers can be found here.
Stephen had to say;
“The hydro pool sessions with our service users is proving to be a great success.”
