Aquatic Program

The Presbyterian Aquatic Program is especially helpful for individuals with arthritis or knee and hip injuries, as well as anyone who has difficulty with weight bearing exercises. Warm water exercise is an excellent way to increase joint range of motion and muscular strength and endurance.

• Chronic low back and neck pain
• Orthopedic surgeries
• Sports injuries 
• Osteoarthritis
• Rheumatologic diseases
• Fibromyalgia
• Pain management 
• Obesity
• Diabetes
