Aquatic therapy can often help to make exercise of muscle groups/or joints easier and less painful. As compared to land-based therapy, water is a safe and effective medium for treatment. Buoyancy reduces stress on joints and muscles. The goal of Aquatic therapy is to return the individual to activity as quickly and safely as possible. REHAB's heated, therapeutic pool provides an atmosphere conducive to rapid recovery from injury or disability.
Staff is trained in aquatic therapy and have water safety certification. A variety of floatation devices and weights are used to ensure safety of the individual in the pool while building strength and endurance. A specially designed hydraulic lift is available at the main hospital location to assist in transporting individuals directly into the pool.
