For some conditions, traditional physical therapy can place too much stress on joints, causing pain and delaying the healing process. That’s why LVHN rehabilitation specialists offer aquatic therapy, or water therapy, as an alternative. We help your body recover gently with a unique treatment plan that’s tailored to your personal goals.
Aquatic therapy provides a decreased weight bearing environment, a gentler substitute for traditional physical therapy. Our program is designed to help your body heal while also protecting your bones and joints.
Water therapy is a great option for people with many medical conditions, including:
- Musculoskeletal issues
- Spinal stenosis
- Spondylolisthesis
Your aquatic therapy, personalized
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to rehabilitation. Your water therapy sessions focus on your personal goals and abilities, helping you achieve your maximum level of function.
Treatments are carried out in one of our indoor pools. Water temperatures are kept between 94 and 96 degrees, ensuring you stay comfortable throughout your session.
Your therapy may include pool exercises using multiple tools, such as:
- Underwater treadmills
- Therapy paddles
- Massage jets
- Flotation devices

- Increasing flexibility
