Aquatic Therapy Associates provides one on one physical therapy for children and adults. We specialize in aquatic physical therapy using the properties of water coupled with traditional physical therapy techniques to provide comprehensive healing. The properties of water provide many therapeutic benefits.
The beauty of aquatic therapy is that it is appropriate for any ability or phase of rehabilitation. The warm water enhances muscular relaxation, which increases circulation, reduces swelling and promotes healing. When immersed to shoulder level, 80% of the body's effective gravity dissipates due to the buoyancy of the water. In turn, buoyancy reduces compressive forces on the joints, allowing those with chronic pain to move and walk with greater ease and increase their range of motion.

Our Milestones Program provides fun, functional and therapeutic swim to children with special needs.
Our Adult Aquatic Therapy Program is beneficial to most anyone seeking to increase strength, decrease pain and improve function.

Our clinic is based at the Osher Marin Jewish community Center in San Rafael. The 89 degree heated indoor pool is fully accessible. Land PT including body work, soft tissue mobilization, therapeutic exercise and body mechanics training is also incorporated in your therapeutic sessions.
