Hydrotherapy pool
Garden Village residents can relax and rejuvenate in a renewed hydrotherapy pool. The pool was refurbished in 2022 with a pool ramp, new spa with bubble jets, gym equipment and improved amenities. Hydrotherapy pools are warmer than a typical swimming pool.
The warm temperature assists people with arthritis and joint pain as well as supporting mobility for people with disabilities.
Hydrotherapy focuses on slow, controlled movements and relaxation. Water exercise assists body strength, flexibility, conditioning and general fitness as well as promoting a sense of wellbeing. Hydrotherapy can enhance the progress of many rehabilitation and recovery programs.
