Centre facilities

Four fully-equipped therapy rooms

There are four therapy rooms at the South West Centre which are all fully equipped to support the assessment of your child. Equipment available in each room includes physio balls, wedges and rolls as well as many educational resources and toys. 

Sensory room

During your visit to the Centre, you and your child will get the opportunity to visit the sensory room which is a safe place for your child to relax in and enjoy the lights and other sensory input. The sensory room can be used as a calming space to help a child regulate themselves as well as providing opportunities for engagement through interaction with the equipment.

Hydropool

The Physiotherapists at Brainwave South West work with children in the hydrotherapy pool. We can develop a Programme of exercises to help children to relax in the water, improve their confidence, float with aids and where appropriate work towards independent swimming.

Families working with Physiotherapists are offered the opportunity of having a hydrotherapy session at both their initial assessments and reassessments. Parents are welcome to come into the pool to join in with the session or they can observe from the side.

Family room

This relaxing and comfortable room allows families to take their breaks and enjoy drinks and refreshments from the fully-equipped kitchen. Baby-changing and toilet facilities are provided for families. This room provides the ideal opportunity for families to meet other Brainwave families, share experiences and knowledge over a friendly cup of tea!
