Primary Care Physiotherapist Zoe Helps 80-Year-Old Trudy Thrive Through Hydrotherapy at TLC Whitewater

80-year-old Trudy has recently moved into the brand-new aged care home TLC Whitewater in Mordialloc, Victoria. The transition to the new environment was challenging for Trudy, but she found comfort in the compassionate care provided by the staff at the residence. In particular, Trudy has been enjoying hydrotherapy sessions with Primary Care Physiotherapist, Zoe.

Hydrotherapy is a form of physical therapy that involves exercises and movements performed in a warm water pool. This therapy is particularly beneficial for elderly individuals like Trudy who may suffer from arthritis, muscle weakness, or balance problems. Hydrotherapy can also help reduce pain and stiffness in joints, increase mobility, and improve overall fitness levels.

Zoe, Trudy's physiotherapist, has been helping her with various exercises and movements that are tailored to her specific needs and abilities. Trudy has been making steady progress, and she's been noticing improvements in her balance and flexibility. More importantly, hydrotherapy has given Trudy a sense of purpose and joy. She looks forward to her sessions with Zoe, and she's even made new friends with other residents who attend the same classes.
