Aquatic therapy Benefits

Water provides a safe, comforting, and relaxed environment for gentle, virtually weightless exercise. Merely standing in water that is waist-deep reduces your weight by 50%! METRO's aquatic therapists are specially trained to work with orthopedic and arthritis patients and offer specific exercise protocols for increasing strength, stamina and flexibility among neurologic and postsurgical patients. The application of water in physical therapy uses buoyancy to decrease the effects of gravity and compression of the joints in weight-bearing exercises. Aquatic rehabilitation allows for swelling control and utilization of hydrostatic pressure to increase sensory output, making it a safe alternative to land-based therapy.

We can increase range of motion, mobility, overall conditioning and ability to function in daily living. Where there was once only pain, dependence and dysfunction, there can be less pain, independence and a joyful return to the activities of daily living. You can have less stiffness in your joints and more energy and stamina in your life. Aquatic therapy is more than just hope. Aquatic Therapy is a clinically proven, safe, and effective approach for treating arthritis and other conditions that impact human muscles, bones and joints.
