Discover the benefits of aquatic therapy

Aquatic therapy helps kids with movement challenges, sensory issues and anxiety. These fun OT sessions help kids and young adults develop safety awareness, attention, following directions and learn to move their bodies in new ways.

why work with us?

Aquatic therapy can help

Children

Children enjoy therapy in the water.  Fun games encourage kids to move and occupational therapy helps them learn to apply those movements to life outside the pool.

Adaptive Swimming

Swimming is a life skill.  Many typical swim lesson programs and instructors are not trained to help children with special needs learn this important life skill.  Join us and learn to swim.

Pre-Natal

The water helps to reduce back and hip pain during pregnancy.  Stretches in the water help prepare the body for birth.  Weekly topics around birth and parenthood address mental health.

about Aquatic Occupational Therapy

From water to land

Aquatic occupational therapy helps people with skills needed for work and play!  For children this can mean the skills needed for balance when playing on the floor or helping children manage their sensory experiences, so that they can be more engaged in the classroom.  Aquatic therapy is great for relaxing tight muscles and allowing kids to experience a new freedom of movement. The power of aquatic therapy

 comes from qualities of being in the water- a weightless feeling, more resistance when moving through the water to strengthen muscles and the whole body sensory experience of being in the water.  The experience of occupational therapy in the water is new to most children and young adults, fun and engaging- a great way to get therapy done!
