Aquatic Therapy for Children

Curative New Berlin Therapies offers aquatic therapy for children. Our state-licensed and certified physical therapists, who are specially trained in aquatic techniques, provide therapeutic exercises in a pool environment. Aquatic therapy offers an alternative way to work toward therapy goals in a gravity reduced environment.

Water-based therapy is helpful for improving strength, body awareness and overall endurance. Typically, aquatic therapy is considered to be a short-term addition to a physical therapy plan of care.
