Aquatic Therapy

Aquatic therapy is one of the safest, most progressive forms of rehabilitation because the force of gravity is eliminated. The purpose of Aquatics is to aide the patient in relaxing while using the properties of water for stretching, increasing range of motion, easing pain, retraining muscles while increasing endurance, rhythm and coordination. Without gravity, patients are able to focus on increased mobility and strength because painful joint impact is diminished. Water also provides resistance to every movement so that muscles can gain balance and strength while pain and swelling is decreased.
