Aquatic Therapy

Aquatic Physical Therapy is the evidence-based and skilled practice of physical therapy in an aquatic environment by licensed physical therapist or physical therapist assistant.

The buoyancy, support and accommodating resistance and other unique properties of the aquatic environment enhance interventions for patients/clients across the age span with musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiovascular/pulmonary, and integumentary diseases, disorders or conditions.

Aquatic Physical Therapy interventions are designed to improve or maintain:

  • Function
  • Aerobic capacity/endurance conditioning
  • Balance, coordination and agility
  • Body mechanics and postural stabilization
  • Flexibility
  • Gait and locomotion
  • Relaxation
  • Muscle strength, power, endurance

Interventions used in Aquatic Physical Therapy include, but not limited to therapeutic exercise, functional training, manual therapy, breathing strategies, electrotherapeutic modalities, physical agents and mechanical modalities using the properties of water and techniques unique to the aquatic environment.
