What is Aquatic Therapy?
Aquatic therapy uses the healing properties of warm water to lessen pain associated with arthritis, fibromyalgia, and spinal/joint injuries. Water therapy allows patients to begin therapy sooner and enhance post surgery recovery. While performing treatment using aquatic therapy the buoyancy of water eliminates 20% to 100% of a patients body weight, allowing more gait and balance exercises to occur than when performing traditional land therapy.
Aquatic Therapy can benefit those suffering from:
- Back Pain
- Joint Pain

- Neurological conditions including: Parkinson's Disease, post stroke effects, head injuries, balance disorders
- Sports injuries for all ages
