Athletic Therapy Clinic

Isokinetic testing is an ideal method to determine the true force output of a muscle group after an injury or surgery, and is an effective tool to help determine safe and effective return to sport or activity. It can also help to identify where the weaknesses are in a range, and therefore help the clinician design a proper program to help improve performance.

Using a SwimEx 700 physical therapy resistance pool, clients are treated with isokinetic aquatic therapy and rehab. The SwimEx pool is located in a separate area within the clinic, with a private changing room and shower. The resistance pool has adjustable platforms for depth, adjustable water current and water temperature control. There are two viewing windows on either side of the pool, should filming or observing the activity be needed.

Common uses for the aqua therapy pool:

•    Post-surgical rehab
•    Strengthening and conditioning for low-mobility clients (i.e. arthritis, Multiple sclerosis, stroke, etc)
•    Intense Strengthening and conditioning for athletes 
  

*Certain criteria must be met for eligibility for aqua therapy. Please contact us for further information.
