aquatic therapy certifications

Aquatic therapy certifications are credentials that health professionals, like physical and occupational therapists, obtain to demonstrate specialized training in using water for rehabilitation. These certifications ensure practitioners understand how to safely and effectively incorporate aquatic environments—such as pools—into treatment plans to improve mobility, reduce pain, and promote recovery. Training typically covers water physics, therapy techniques, and patient safety. Holding such certification indicates a professional’s expertise in leveraging the unique properties of water to enhance therapeutic outcomes.
