Wellness

Is pain or stiffness preventing you from getting around? Are you having problems doing land-based exercise because of pain? If so, aquatic therapy at Physical Therapy @ ACAC may be just what you need to get back on your feet.

Research has shown that aquatic exercise helps to improve strength, pain, mobility, balance and coordination. For that reason, aquatic therapy is a key tool in our treatment plan for people suffering from conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, acute or chronic back pain, multiple sclerosis, and chronic fatigue syndrome.

At Physical Therapy @ ACAC, our highly trained physical therapists can help you incorporate aquatic therapy into your treatment. ACAC's large exercise pool (heated at 85 degrees) and warm water pool (heated at 94 degrees) can be a valuable part of your road to good health!
