Aquatics

Aquatic therapy ioncorporates the properties of water to positively impact movement, strength and function.  Water is safe and effective medium to exercise specific muscle groups and joints with substantially less compressive forces that other types if exercise.  Aquatic therapy techniques are designed to move against the buoyancy of water, facilitating exercise by making movements easier and less painful.  The therapeutic, non-weight bearing properties of water create an ideal rehabilitation environment, especially for post-operative patients or those with back injuries. 

  • All participants MUST have a doctor's release.
  • Proper aquatic dress attire:
    • Women - one piece suit
