Guided rehabilitation in a 33°C heated magnesium pool, in a private lane reserved for Forge clients — led by physiotherapists and exercise physiologists.
Water takes the load off. That is the whole point: in a warm pool you can move a joint, load a muscle and practise balance at intensities that would be impossible on land — which makes hydrotherapy the bridge between ‘cannot weight-bear’ and a gym-based program.
At Musgrave Park Aquatic Centre in South Brisbane, in a private lane reserved exclusively for Forge clients, with wheelchair-accessible facilities. A pool entry ticket is required in addition to the session fee — both are set out on the pricing page.
Everyone from first-time exercisers to athletes, and every age. It is particularly useful when land-based exercise is painful, frightening or simply not yet possible — after a joint replacement, with significant arthritis, or where balance is the limiting factor.
Recovery after joint replacement of the hip, knee, shoulder or spine; arthritis and joint stiffness; sports injuries, sprains and strains; shoulder impingement and tendinopathy.
Stroke rehabilitation, Parkinson’s disease, and any condition where balance, coordination or mobility is the problem — water catches you, so you can push further than you dare on land.
Where load tolerance is low and flare-ups follow anything too ambitious, warm water lets us start at an intensity that does not provoke it.
Age-related weakness and deconditioning, and general conditioning for people who want to move more without punishing their joints.
Unit 4, 249 Montague Road — a short run from South Brisbane, Highgate Hill, Dutton Park, Woolloongabba and South Bank, and from the CBD across the river.
