Merrylands Rehab Centre

We are an outpatient rehabilitation centre staffed with physical therapists, occupational therapist and exercise physiologist. We believe that during rehabilitation, the patient should be educated by their therapist in order to be able to maintain maximum flexibility and pain-free living long after our work ends.

Intensive rehabilitation can be used for the conditions that require more rehabilitation time in the beginning to set the patient on the right path. Intensive rehabilitation can last from 2 to 3 weeks depending on the patient's needs.

During the period of your intensive rehabilitation, you will be doing your physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and hydrotherapy more frequently during the week and the duration of these sessions may be longer than what your regular sessions are.Research on intensive rehabilitation indicates that patients with certain conditions require more repetition or intensity in their activities and exercises they do during their physiotherapy session.

There may be times when you are unable to travel to the clinic to have your physiotherapy sessions. This may be due to having difficulty with public transport or you may feel that you are more comfortable with doing your physiotherapy at your place of residence. At Merrylands rehab Centre we provide home-based services.

Hydrotherapy, is a part of alternative medicine that involves the use of water for pain relief and treatment. Body's weight reduces when immersed inside water and load of exercise reduces on body parts such as foot, knee, hips and back. It's extremely beneficial specially for people finding it difficult to do exercise over ground and get tired quickly.
