Aquatic Therapy at Fundamentals Therapy
Therapy That Makes a Splash—In All the Right Ways
At Fundamentals Therapy, we use aquatic therapy as a specialized treatment modality integrated into Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech Therapy sessions. Conducted in our on-site, child-friendly pool, aquatic therapy provides a fun and supportive environment where children can safely develop essential skills while enjoying the natural benefits of water.
Water provides gentle resistance, buoyancy, and sensory input—all of which help promote strength, coordination, body awareness, and calm. It also reduces the impact on joints, making it ideal for children with motor delays, sensory processing differences, or those recovering from injury.
Our aquatic therapy program is unique and fun
Our Pool is Designed for Therapy Success
Our therapy pool is more than just a place to splash—it’s equipped with specialized tools and adaptive equipment that allow our therapists to customize every session to each child’s needs. Whether we’re working on gross motor skills, breath control, sensory regulation, or functional communication, aquatic therapy offers unique opportunities that traditional settings can’t always provide.
Led by Licensed Pediatric Therapists
Aquatic therapy sessions are guided by experienced Physical Therapists (PTs), Physical Therapist Assistants (PTAs), Occupational Therapists (OTs), Occupational Therapy Assistants (OTAs), Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs), or Speech Language Pathologist Assistants (SLPAs) who are specially trained in using water-based interventions. Your child’s aquatic therapy plan is always individualized and coordinated with their land-based goals for consistent, whole-child support.
Our aquatic therapy program is a unique and fun way to help children grow stronger, more confident, and more connected.
