Help for which types of therapy apply?

Hydrotherapy has been recommended to me by a consultant rheumatologist, a physiotherapist and a pain consultant as a way of managing my lifelong condition (Hypermobility Syndrome). I think I previously read somewhere on your website that therapy in a hospital doesn't count. However there are not any hydrotherapy pools at hospitals near me and so I attend one at a pool attached to a special school near me. I attend a session organised by the local Arthritis Care Group and I have to pay for it myself. If I lose my DLA and don't get PIP it is something I will have to give up and my condition will deteriorate as a result. I can't remember all the exercises myself and ordinary swimming pools are not warm enough anyway. Does this count as needing help to manage therapy?
