Northern PT VT: Benefits Of Aquatic Therapy

The buoyancy, support and accommodating resistance of water enhance exercise and create a safe environment for progressive rehabilitation. The temperature of the water prompts muscle relaxation, facilitates stretching and generally reduces the sensation of pain. Some of the benefits include: • Improve Strength and Endurance

• Increase Range of Motion • Normalize Muscle Tone • Improve Balance and Coordination • Protect Joints During Exercise • Improve Circulation • Decrease Swelling • Reduce Stress • Moderate Body Temperature

Northern Physical Therapy’s aquatic program helps you recover faster. Our therapists are trained and certified in special advanced techniques. A customized aquatic therapy treatment program can allow injured patients to exercise with a greater range of motion without hurting joints or re-injuring themselves. The workout gets the blood moving faster through the injured area, so healing is faster. The water pressure also helps keep down swelling.

Patient Spotlight:

“The facility is top notch.” “I ended up with really debilitating back pain this winter and NPT has been an incredible resource for me. Everyone on staff has been so skilled- in diagnosing the problems, explaining the anatomy and body mechanics, and training me on what to do (exercises, stretches, and behavior modifications) to alleviate the pain. The facility is top notch, and the place always has a really upbeat feel to it. That’s pretty impressive when you figure everyone walking through the door is dealing with some kind of challenge or pain.”

“Thank you for your EXPERT WORK!”” “The pain in my lumbar region has definitely decreased! I am better able to bend and sit more comfortably. Thank you for your EXPERT WORK!”
