On-Site Aquatic Therapy

Why Water?

Aquatic therapy allows patients to begin rehab earlier than traditional land-based therapies. This returns the patient to optimal levels of functioning sooner in the rehabilitation process.
Picture
Aquatic therapy is often used to treat problems associated with:
  • Orthopedic surgery prehabilitation
  • Athletic rehabilitation "Athlete Advantage"
  • Pain management
  • Back and neck injury
  • Strains and sprains
  • Neurological illness or injury
  • Arthritis
  • Gait deviations and balance/proprioception
  • Decreased range of motion

Warm Water/Human Body Principles​

  • Buoyancy—allows the person to move a body part with minimal effort while supporting the rest of the body and decompressing the joints
  • Hydrostatic pressure—compresses deeply submerged body parts to increase balance and help eliminate unnecessary body fluids
  • Viscosity—increases resistance to moving body parts directly proportionate to the person’s efforts
  • Warm water—allows for the immediate shunting of blood to all joints and muscles to “oil the engine” for motion without “grinding”

Phased Progression: The Evolution of Physical Therapy      ​

Synergy Therapies created its one of a kind system of aquatic therapy, Phased Progression, in conjunction with traditional land therapy. This system is based on a set of inclusive criteria that justifies the use of aquatic therapy for the patient. If the patient qualifies for aquatics they will start their aquatic program in the Phase that is most appropriate for their condition. Each phase is designed to fully harness the healing principles of water and to maximize the patient’s full rehab potential at that particular time. Each specific diagnosis has its own unique protocol tailored for the patient. Customizing patient care is our top priority.   

As the patient progresses in their rehab, so does their aquatic program. Before their aquatic discharge, the patient must pass their own customized Aquatic Functional Test(s). This will determine their readiness for a safe transition to exclusive land therapy.

Aquatic therapy accelerates rehabilitation faster than traditional land therapy and allows you to get back to living a more functional and satisfying life.
