Our Session
Our therapists tailor client's individual treatment plan to fit them specifically. The client's sessions will be developed based on their interest, ability, leisure and fitness awareness.

Inclusive Recreation Therapy
Strategies that promote inclusion are also strategies that promote meeting clients at their individual
developmental level. This can benefit all clients. Providing a wide range of developmentally
appropriate materials and activities lets all clients be successful when working and playing. Consistent
routines and transitions help clients know what to expect and feel comfortable. It is also important to
consider the type of assistance given to our clients. It is important to help all clients learn independence,
and give them just enough help to be successful without helping them too much. When planning
interventions, we start with the least restrictive changes like changing the environment, activity, or
materials before providing direct assistance. Provide opportunities for our clients to have sustained social
interactions and participate fully in the program.

Aquatic Therapy
What is Aquatic Therapy
Aquatic therapy, or pool therapy, consists of an exercise program that is performed in the water. It is a beneficial form of therapy that is useful for a variety of medical conditions. Aquatic therapy uses the physical properties of water to assist in patient healing and exercise performance.


Our Sessions
All aquatic sessions are modified specifically to each client. The session starts with a warm-up and progresses into exercises that are designed to address your particular injury or ailment.
Most aquatic therapy sessions will take about 30 minutes to 1 hour based on your individual needs and tolerance. Our aquatic therapist will determine the length of your program.
