Aquatic
THerapy
Physical and Occupational Therapists, as well as Behavioral Health Therapists provide aquatic therapy treatment for children of all ages and diagnoses. Some diagnoses that can benefit from aquatic therapy are CP and other neurological disorders, Developmental Delay, Autism, General Weakness or Neuromuscular Diseases, etc. Aquatic therapy uses the properties of the water to address a variety of specific needs, including muscle strengthening and flexibility, body awareness and coordination, respiratory and circulatory function, head and trunk control, sensory integration and attention, self-esteem, social interactions and motivation.
OUR Approach
Our occupational therapists employ a range of modalities and treatment techniques, which encompass nature-centered approaches, aquatic therapy, equine-assisted movement therapy (Hippotherapy), and animal-assisted interventions. The goal of occupational therapy (OT) is to assist each child in engaging in activities that are essential to their lives, including playing, learning, and daily routines like dressing and grooming.
