Our brand new facility boasts one of the greatest tools in physical therapy - the HydroWorx pool.
The HydroWorx pool offers the latest technology in aquatic therapy which is trusted by elite rehab centers, sports teams, and wellness facilities throughout the world. See Who uses HydroWorx?.
After an illness, injury, or surgery, a patient may be more
sensitive to pain, they may be less able to bear weight on the
affected area, and/or movement may be severely limited. In water,
the effects of gravity are not as strong as on land. Water supports
the body, provides assistance to movement, increases circulation,
and potentially provides resistance to movement. Patients can
improve mobility, strength, and function rapidly with the assistance
of aquatic therapy. The benefits of aquatic therapy include:
- Decreased swelling
- Increased circulation
- Increased range of motion and flexibility
- Improved muscle strength and tone
- Increased cardiovascular function and endurance
- Increased balance and coordination
- Reduced stress
The healing powers of water are now available to you - right here in the Bronx. Our heated (92-94 degrees) Hydroworx Therapy Pool is ideal for comfort, movement, and exercise for patients and athletes at all stages of the rehab process.
