Our indoor pool at our Huntington Beach office has four different water levels to help accommodate all patients.  Our specialized aquatic therapy programs can accelerate the healing process and speed up recovery by allowing patients to participate in active therapy sooner after injury or surgery than traditional land therapy.

Aquatic therapy is effective for the treatment of most musculoskeletal disorders of the spine and extremities including various arthritic conditions.  The buoyancy of the water allows virtual pain free exercise to be performed.  An aquatic therapy program can be designed to improve strength, range of motion and aerobic conditioning much earlier than usual for certain patient conditions.

As an aquatic program progresses, land therapy can be typically incorporated as tolerated and the water treatment can be reduced.  This progression not only promotes therapy compliance by providing a comfortable environment during the initial recovery phase, it also allows a patient to return to work, sports and normal activities sooner by minimizing strength loss associated with immobility.
