I hope that this petition will encourage the BGH to reconsider the decision to close the hydrotherapy pool.

Very sad to hear that NHS Borders have brought through these proposals without consulting those who benefit form the use of the hydrotherapy pool and the physio gym!

My son Sam really benefits from his hydro sessions and it is the ONLY physical exercise he can take part in. The local pools are too cold and he cannot take his physio with him. Add to that the indignity of being hauled through public changing areas and it is simply not on. This pool is well used and NEEDED by so many people!

Therapies that work save money!

I’ve just benefited from several weeks of hydrotherapy at the BGH.  I am delighted to be able to say that I can
now walk straight again and am off the vast number of painkillers I needed to
manage the pain caused by slipped discs. 
I was offered an operation
following an MRI scan.  Thanks to the
dedication of physio staff working with me in the hydrotherapy pool NHS Borders
will be saved the expense of that operation. 

I no longer need it!
