Huronia District Hospital equipped with hydro therapy © by Shirley Whittington One of.the wonders of the new Huronia District Hospital is a 1000 gallon wading and exercise tank. If you break your leg skiing this winter, or if you have serious muscle or back problems, the chances are good that you may benefit from physio- therapy in one of the two water filled chambers. The adult side of the hydro therapy tank is five feet wide, 54 inches deep. The child sized portion of the tank holds 32 inches of warm water. Supportive harnesses suspended above the tank will power patients into the unit, and inside, there are stainless steel sup- porting railings. There are stainless steel steps for those who can enter unassisted. The hydro therapy tank will be used. mainly for orthopedics. After a cast is removed from a broken leg, the joints are stiff. Working them in the 94 degree water feels. good, and because one weighs less in water, exercise is easier for patients.

"A member of the physio staff will go into the tank with the patient the first time," he says, "although the tank is designed so that therapists have access to patients without entering it. "Swimming gear is worn in the tank. Such sophisticated treatment equipment is costly. The tank, in- cluding the purification unit, mixing valve, overhead carrier and installation cost $18,710. The. Midland. and District Shrine Club is hoping to raise the cost of the unit through a series of public dances, the first of which is being held at the Midland Civic Centre next Saturday. The Shriners have always had a particular interest in children with cerebral palsy, and the HDS hydrotherapy tank will be of great benefit in treating such children.
