We know there are so many benefits to continuing exercise during pregnancy, but it is hard to know where to start. Our pregnancy classes are run by physiotherapists and can be modified depending on your specific needs! You can enjoy the weightlessness of the water in our aqua classes, or sweat it out in the gym and Pilates sessions, or a mix of both!

Call us on 08 9271 9422 to find out more or book online!

Joint pain doesn’t mean you should stop moving.
It means you need the right kind of movement. 💧🏃‍♀️

One of the most common questions we’re asked at Mercy Physio is:
“Is water-based exercise better than land-based exercise for my joints?”

The truth? Both can be incredibly effective — it depends on you.

✨ Water-based exercise (hydrotherapy) can:
• Reduce joint load by up to 90% through buoyancy
• Allow movement with less pain and pressure
• Use gentle resistance to build strength without impact
• Ease stiffness through warm water therapy

It’s often a game-changer for people with osteoarthritis, post-surgical joints, inflammatory conditions, or anyone who finds land exercise too painful.

✨ Land-based exercise can:
• Build functional strength for real-life tasks
• Improve balance and coordination
• Support bone density
• Progress intensity more easily over time

For many people, the best results come from a combined approach — starting in water to calm pain and restore movement, then building strength on land as confidence grows.

If you’ve been avoiding exercise because it flares your pain, please know this:
There is a way to move that feels safe and supportive.

At Mercy Physio, we offer:
• 1:1 supervised hydrotherapy
• Osteo Gym Circuit & Osteo Aqua classes
• Land-based joint pain physiotherapy
• Individualised plans that combine both

Your joints were designed to move — sometimes they just need the right environment to begin again.

DM us “WATER” if you’d like more information about our hydrotherapy and aqua classes 💙

Joint pain and unsure where to start with exercise? 🤔

One of the most common questions we hear at Mercy Physio is:
“Is water exercise better than land exercise for my joints?”

The answer isn’t one-size-fits-all — but understanding the difference can completely change how confident (and comfortable) you feel moving again.

In our latest blog, we break down:
✔️ The science behind hydrotherapy benefits for joint pain
✔️ Why land-based strength training still matters
✔️ Who each type of exercise suits best
✔️ Why many people benefit from a combined approach

💡 And guess what? At Mercy Physio we offer both land and water based rehab and class options 🙌

If you’ve been avoiding exercise because it hurts — this is for you.
