Our skilled team of licensed physical therapists offer the unique option of in-home pool therapy. This hydrotherapy option for aquatic rehabilitation is often only offered in hospitals or clinic settings. 

Our therapists have extensive experience in aquatic therapy and are dedicated to ongoing education and training. One of our PTs led the aquatics program at New York University’s PT Department! 

With our team you have the choice to stay home, and we’ll come to you to create a customized physical therapy program for your pool. We provide mobile aqua PT in Naples, Bonita Springs, Saint Augustine, and Ponte Vedra Florida for condtions like:

• Chronic pain

We consult and work with many local physicians and surgeons.

Although health insurance plans are not accepted, insurance plans with "out-of-network" benefits may reimburse you depending on your plan. Our team can provide you with a "superbill" so that you can file your claim on your own. Please contact your insurance company to verify your coverage. Medicare and Medicaid are not accepted with this form of reimbursement.

Why Do We Recommend Aquatic PT?

• Its natural resistance can be used to increase the rehabilitation process and for muscle strengthening.

• Water has a natural buoyancy for flotation and reduces gravity on aching muscles and joints. There’s just less pain when you exercise in water.

• With its hydrostatic pressure, you’re supported and don’t have to fear falling from performing exercises.

• It provides a soothing and relaxing environment for aching muscles and joints. It also gets you in the zone.

• The respiratory muscles are forced to work more for good health. Breathe better.

• Wave propagation and turbulence allow the physical therapist to gently manipulate your body.

• It can help many conditions, including arthritis, chronic pain, lower back pain, orthopedic injuries, sprains, edema, cardiac conditions, POTS, and tendonitis.

What to Expect in a Pool Therapy Exercise Program

Aquatic therapy sessions are organized:

•  Typically, the aquatic therapy session starts out with a land-based evaluation to go over your history, assess your strength, balance, and range of motion,

• Then your PT will create a custom pool program for you. Typically our pool treatment sessions begin on our session session, but some clients may get a few short exercises on the first session. You may begin with low-resistance exercises to target your specific issues. Movements may include walking, stretching, and resistance or balance exercises.

• Subsequent sessions may be in the pool and/or land. When back in the pool, your PT will progress your exercises so you may perform cardiovascular activities like deep water running, fast walking, or small hops. Strength activities may be performed to target your legs, arms, or core. Balance exercises may also be used to help you reduce falls and balance better without falling.

• Your pool therapy exercise program will be tailored to meet your unique needs. No one program is alike, and know that your PT may or may not join you in the pool depending on your needs.
