Get Your Feet Wet
This independent pool exercise program provides a safe and fun environment for a great workout. Water exercise puts a minimum of stress on joints and enables patients to concentrate on increasing mobility, flexibility and strength. This is an ideal exercise program for people with musculoskeletal or arthritic conditions. Sessions are led by a trained professional with special skills in aquatic therapy.
New participants must have a physician's prescription and a minimum of one session with our physical therapist for evaluation and treatment.
