OUR EXPERTISE
IN AQUATHERAPY
(OR HYDROTHERAPY)
Aquatherapy is a form of physiotherapy performed in a pool. It involves exercises tailored to your condition, which take advantage of the benefits of water to help you achieve your rehabilitation goals.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HYDROTHERAPY?
Aquatherapy offers numerous benefits due to the unique properties of water.
- Less impact: Water supports the body, which reduces mechanical stress during movements.
- Reduction of inflammation : Immersion helps to soothe inflamed tissues.
- Increased mobility: The warmth of the water promotes muscle relaxation and improves the range of motion.
This approach is an excellent complement in rehabilitation. It allows for achieving a better level of physical activity, even in the presence of limitations.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT AQUATHERAPY
WHO IS AQUATHERAPY FOR?
Aquatherapy is suitable for anyone for whom exercising outside of water is difficult, or even impossible.
Whether it's because of:
- a recent injury,
- a lack of mobility,
- or certain conditions such as arthritis, lower back pain, or capsulitis,
Aquatherapy provides a gentle, safe, and effective solution for resuming movement at your own pace.
HOW DOES AN AQUATHERAPY SESSION PROCEED?
Firstly, a private clinical assessment is required before the sessions to allow your physiotherapist to properly determine your condition and to provide you with an appropriate level of exercises.
WHERE DO THE AQUATHERAPY SESSIONS TAKE PLACE?
The sessions take place at the Centre Aquatique LeGardeur and at the Centre Aquadôme de LaSalle, where the water is heated to 90*. The pool depth is about 4 feet. Entry into the water is via stairs with a handrail. You must be able to climb an interior staircase of 5 steps (with handrail) to get to the pool.
WHAT EQUIPMENT IS REQUIRED DURING AQUATHERAPY SESSIONS?
To fully enjoy your session, please bring:
• A comfortable bathing suit which allows you to move without restriction
• A towel
• Long hair must be tied up (a swimming cap is not mandatory))
Tip: Consider arriving a few minutes early to get changed with no rush.
