​
This includes Sport Injury Rehabilitation and pre/post surgical care for Total Joint replacements, rotator cuff repair, ACL reconstruction, spinal fusion and many other orthopedic surgeries.
Aquatic Therapy
For patients who are in severe pain or are weakened due to an injury, disability, or surgery, aquatic therapy offers the perfect solution to begin treatment. By conducting your care in water you will have greater control over your movement with less pain as your body weight is partially supported by the buoyancy of water, reducing stress on joints and allowing freedom of movement. Plus, the natural pressure of water reduces joint and soft-tissue swelling and provides enough resistance to strengthen muscle.
Aquatic Therapy is Provided at the Wheat Ridge Recreation Center
