Aquatic Therapy

We specialize in Aquatic Therapy

Benefits of Aquatics Exercise:

1. Increased range of motion due to water’s buoyancy

2. Unloading of joints reduces difficulty

3. Muscle relaxation leading to pain relief

4. Improvement of power, endurance, and stability

Pain relieving viscosity and warmth of water provides an excellent source of resistance, assistance, and joint support.

Assistance:

Water exerts equal pressure on all body parts of the body that are immersed in it. This allows an unstable person to hold and maintain an upright position and improves circulation.

Resistance:

The density of water provides resistance to movements that would be more easily accomplished outside the water environment.

Support:

Decreased loading reduces discomfort of the joints.
