A unique feature of Montgomery Hospital Medical Center is our 25 meter therapeutic pool heated to a comfortable 90 degrees Fahrenheit. The pool is just 4-1/2 feet deep, an ideal level for exercise.

From arthritis to back injury, Aquatic Therapy is ideal for a variety of medical conditions. Water is naturally buoyant, reducing the effect of gravity on the body. As a result, patients can move more easily and perform exercises in the water. Improved mobility and activity levels help build strength and enhance a patient's ability to meet his or her recovery goals. Conditions that can benefit from this therapy include:

  • Acute Back and Lower Extremity Injuries
  • Arthritis
  • Chronic Pain
  • Joint Replacement
  • Neurological Problems
  • Obesity
  • Orthopaedics
  • Post-Operative Recovery
Montgomery's program is customized to a patient's needs from initial assessment to periodic reassessment on an ongoing basis. The program is covered by most insurance carriers and operates via physician referral. For further information or to schedule an appointment call 610-270-2400.
