Aquatic Therapy

Low-Impact Physical Rehabilitation in Shelbyville

At MHP SportWorks, we're proud to offer state-of-the-art aquatic therapy utilizing the Hydroworks 2000 warm water pool, a favorite among professional sports teams nationwide. This specialized pool provides our patients with a unique opportunity to perform exercises with the support and buoyancy of water, facilitating pain-free movement.

Aquatic therapy is a form of low-impact physical rehabilitation that harnesses the natural buoyancy of water to assist patients in their exercise routines. By reducing pressure on joints and allowing for a greater range of motion, water-based exercises can be performed with minimal discomfort or strain on the body. This makes aquatic therapy particularly beneficial for a variety of individuals, including the elderly, those with arthritis, individuals recovering from joint surgery, and patients with chronic pain conditions.

The benefits of aquatic therapy include:

• Improved strength and flexibility: Water resistance helps to build muscle strength and increase flexibility.
• Increased range of motion: Buoyancy in water allows for movements that may be difficult on land, enhancing overall flexibility.
• Recovery from surgery and injuries: Aquatic therapy aids in rehabilitation by providing a supportive environment for healing and recovery.
• Improved balance: Water provides a stable environment for balance exercises, reducing the risk of falls and enhancing coordination.

Whether you're looking to recover from surgery, manage chronic pain, or simply improve your overall fitness, aquatic therapy can provide a safe and effective option for achieving your goals. Our team of experienced therapists is here to guide you through personalized aquatic exercise programs tailored to meet your individual needs.

At Major Health Partners, we have outfitted our facility with the Hydroworks 2000 warm water aquatic therapy pool. This is the same model used by several professional sports teams. Our patients undergo a guided, carefully paced, and customized therapy plan in a comforting, pain-free environment.
