Aquatic therapy is the perfect way for people who are injured or disabled to safely perform exercises in the water that they otherwise could not perform. The water’s viscosity helps muscle strengthening, and in some instances, recovery may be faster through aquatic therapy than any other form of therapy.

If you suffer from chronic pain, arthritis, orthopedic injuries, scoliosis, tendonitis, and more – an endless pool would be the perfect addition to your home! There are plenty of exercises available to fit your needs as well. There’s aquatic running and you can even purchase an underwater treadmill. Ankle weights and resistance bands also make adding new exercises to the pool easy. Weight-adjustable barbells for arm exercises are another idea.
