Aquatic Therapy

Aquatic therapy offers an alternate form of rehabilitation and can be used with traditional land-based therapy. The main goal of aquatic therapy is to progress from water to land-based exercise in order to return to an adequate level of function.

Conditions aquatic therapy is beneficial for include, but are not limited to:

Neck & Back Pain
Upper & Lower Extremity Pain
Post-Surgical Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Fibromyalgia
Healing Bone Fractures
Neurologic Conditions Causing Weakness
Generalized Weakness

Our 16' x 20' in-ground pool has 3-lanes of depth at 44", 52" and 66" with the benefit of an underwater treadmill for endurance and gorilla jet for resistance. Aquatic therapy increases muscle tone, strength, endurance, cardiovascular function, circulation, flexibility, ROM, balance and coordination.

Aquatic therapy improves the quality of movement, strengthens and reduces pain. Joint stress is reduced allowing the individual to perform exercise with less pain. A water environment allows the opportunity to strengthen muscle without weights, decrease joint and soft tissue swelling and relax injured muscles allowing for greater blood flow to the injured area.
