Aquatic Therapy

Aquatic Therapy offered through Therapeutic Links is a form of occupational therapy conducted in a pool. Aquatic therapy is backed by research and is designed to improve muscle strength, gait and locomotion, postural stabilization, balance, coordination, sensory deficits as well as endurance in a gravity-lessened environment. Additionally, our aquatic program addresses personal occupations as well as client factors, performance skills and performance patterns. These occupations can include: addressing social participation, play, sleep, education and activities of daily living. Aquatic therapy is a fun way to address goals while using a natural environment! Our Aquatic OTs have additional training and certifications through ATRI (Aquatic Therapy and Rehab Institute). We provide aquatic services at the Pleasant Prairie RexPlex and the Comfort Suites Grayslake.
