Aquatic Therapy

rnv_swim-ladiesSpecialized rehabilitation in a therapeutic pool

Aquatic therapy is physical therapy done in a warm water pool. Water helps reduce the effects of gravity on the body. It also provides natural resistance to help muscles work harder while putting less stress on the body. When warmed to 88 degrees or more, water helps people who have muscle, bone, orthopedic and neurological conditions. It relaxes muscles and ligaments while promoting flexibility. Exercise that otherwise would be painful or not possible on land may be comfortably done in warm water.
