AQUATIC THERAPY

Aquatic Therapy: is a specialized form of physical therapy used until patients can return to dry land activity without increased pain or inflammation, or for certain conditions not able to tolerate physical therapy on land or with gravity such as arthritic joints, and disc pathology. Water improves motion and flexibility, allows for decompression of the spine and aids in joint stabilization. Decreasing the effects of gravity by unweighting the joints, aquatic therapy assists the patient to achieve function regardless of injury. The warmth of the water 90-92 degrees, along with its massaging effects, also allow muscles to relax while helping to reduce pain.
