A big congratulations to Darren who has completed 500m of swimming in a blistering 11 minutes & 21 seconds last week!
Darren initially started hydrotherapy with our Core Physio Morphett Vale team after being diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder. Darren first presented to us largely wheelchair bound and only able to swim approximately 5 metres but has persisted in hydrotherapy every week focusing on strengthening, mobility and endurance. Since undertaking his rehabilitation, Darren has started surfing again this year and has just signed up for the Brighton Jetty Classic in February 2023 involving a 400m open water swim! To say we are impressed with Darren is an understatement. He has shown serious dedication and tenacity to his rehabilitation and is an inspiration to all of us here. Can’t wait to see what your next challenge is. Well done mate!
If you think you or someone you know could benefit from Hydrotherapy, book in for sessions at our Morphett Vale practice today!
