The University of Pittsburgh’s Aquatic Therapy Program offers specialized rehabilitation and fitness services utilizing water-based exercises. These programs are designed to help individuals recover from injuries, manage chronic conditions, or improve overall mobility and strength. The use of water reduces joint stress, enhances movement, and accelerates healing.
