Lead a happier, healthier life with our Good Boost classes and Arthritis Action coffee mornings at Crosby Leisure Centre. These sessions will provide you with the information and exercises to help reduce your muscular and joint pain, improving your physical and mental health, enhancing the quality of your life.
Good Boost provides a flexible approach to supporting you with your muscle or joint pain through gentle aqua and land based exercise rehabilitation classes.
Using information provided about your unique muscle or joint condition, sessions are individually tailored to allow you to progress through your exercises at your own pace and have been built by experts in order to reduce pain and improve your strength and mobility.
The sessions last between 30-60 minutes (site dependant) and consist of a 10-minute warm up followed by a series of 3-4 minute individual exercises, with fun group activities in-between in order to maintain a comfortable body temperature. Both group and individual sessions are available (please check at your leisure facility).
You will be given your own easy-to-use waterproof computer tablet during the session which will display your personalised exercises with clear animated diagrams. Your Good Boost facilitator will be in and around the pool throughout the session to support and guide you.

What is Bump Boost?
Bump Boost is a DTAC- certified personalised therapeutic aquatic activity programme designed to help women from 0-40 weeks pregnant. The technology and artificial intelligence used within portable tablets creates a personalised aqua natal workout for pregnant women to maintain and improve their mobility whilst reducing their pain and discomfort.
The intensity of the exercise depends on their pre-pregnancy fitness levels. Each participant is able to start gently if they have very little pre-pregnancy experience. Bump Boost enables pregnant women who aren’t comfortable exercising or have some pain or discomfort to keep moving at any stage of their pregnancy journey.
Government guidelines for exercise during pregnancy state that exercise is healthy for a mother to be. Research shows that being physically active throughout pregnancy has considerable benefits, counteracting some of the discomforts of pregnancy.
