"Hydrotherapy - Arroll Park"

I have just completed a course of Hyrdotherapy at Arroll Park, Ayr.  I had a spinal decompression in December 2019 and  was referred for this course by my Physio at Ayr hospital. Initially I was sceptical about  the Hyrdotherapy but I can honestly  say transformed it has transformed my life.  The exercises enabled me to carry out exercises to improve my balance and strengthen my core that was proving very difficult with ordinary physiotherapy.  At the end of the course I had gone from having to use a wheelchair to go from the car park to the facility to walking by myself using one stick - what a result.  I was also able to walk inside my house without a stick for a couple of days after my session.  

It also helped me mentally and gave me hope and belief that my condition could be improved. I went from from being quite depressed and hopeless about my prospects to being optimistic and convinced that I could manage and improved my future.

The care and  expertise of all the staff was of the highest standard and I will be forever grateful to them.  It is a pity that the pool is only available to the Hyrdotherapy team for one morning a week.as I am sure that more than one session a week would be beneficial.  I cannot thank all the staff enough for their care and attention - you are a great team.  Please keep up the good work - I am forever in your debt.
