University of Michigan Aquatic Therapy Program

The University of Michigan Aquatic Therapy Program leverages the healing properties of water to assist individuals recovering from injury, surgery, or managing chronic conditions. By utilizing a specialized pool, trained therapists design personalized treatment plans that improve strength, flexibility, and mobility while reducing joint pressure. Water’s buoyancy supports body weight, making movements easier and safer. The program combines clinical expertise with innovative aquatic techniques to promote healing, enhance function, and improve overall well-being, making it an effective option for a wide range of patients seeking rehabilitation in a supportive aquatic environment.
