AQUATICS THERAPY POOL
Notting Hill of West Bloomfield is focused on
short-term in-patient rehabilitation, with the goal of
transitioning back home. We are happy to announce
the opening of our Aquatics Therapy pool. Aquatic
Therapy uses water’s naturally therapeutic properties
of buoyancy, resistance and warmth to enhance the
therapy experience. Since not all people respond
well to traditional gym exercise programs, many
people find aquatic therapy less stressful, preferable to
traditional methods...and FUN!
Why Choose Aquatic Therapy?
Gently builds strength
and muscle tone
Increases blood circulation
Improves range of motion
Decreases joint stress
