Premier Physical Medicine & Wellness Clinic

Aquatic Therapeutic Pool

The onsite aquatic pool is a unique design. The pool is oval shape and has a current capability. It is 3.5 feet deep with a water temperature of approximately 88 degrees Fahrenheit. The pool may be used in absence of the current or with use of the current for assistance or resistance. Surrounding the pool resistance cables are mounted above deck to further enhance upper extremity and core strengthening options.

Our Aquatic Therapy Program is provided by licensed physical therapists in a warm, safe, and welcoming environment. The buoyancy and resistance of water create a safe and easily tolerated environment for accelerated rehabilitation. Aquatic therapy can help: improve strength, endurance, balance, and coordination; increase range of motion; decrease tissue swelling; normalize muscle tone; reduce stress on joints during exercise, and improve circulation. Conditions effectively treated with aquatic physical therapy include: reduced weight bearing conditions, pre/post-partum conditions, spine and other joint pain, post-surgical conditions, chronic pain, arthritis, edema/swelling, and fibromyalgia.

Our Aquatic Classes are taught by an Arthritis Foundation Certified Instructor. Various classes are available to meet the individual needs of the participants. Whether the goal is improved strength, flexibility and balance or weight management and fitness, we can assist you in meeting your goals. Classes are able to accomodate multiple abilities.
