Aquatic Physical Therapy
Aquatic therapy utilizes water's buoyancy to reduce joint stress while strengthening muscles in a low-impact environment. Ideal for arthritis, post-surgical recovery, and mobility limitations, this therapy improves strength, flexibility, and balance. Guided by trained professionals, patients perform targeted exercises at Fidalgo pool to enhance healing and functional recovery.
Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Specialized care for sprains, strains, fractures, and post-surgical recovery focuses on restoring mobility and reducing pain. Therapists assess biomechanics, strength deficits, and movement patterns to create personalized rehabilitation plans. Techniques include manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and modalities like ultrasound or electrical stimulation.
Spinal Stabilization Training
This program addresses back pain by retraining stabilizing muscles through targeted exercises and postural education. Patients learn proper body mechanics and muscle activation techniques to improve spinal stability, reduce pain, and prevent future injuries through individualized stabilization plans.
Vestibular Therapy
Specialized treatment for dizziness and balance disorders, including BPPV, involves diagnostic evaluations and customized exercises to improve balance and reduce vertigo symptoms. Therapists use evidence-based techniques to address inner ear dysfunction and enhance stability during daily activities.
Sports Injury Rehabilitation
Comprehensive care for sports-related injuries combines injury assessment, strength training, and movement pattern correction to facilitate safe return to activity. Therapists focus on restoring function, preventing re-injury, and optimizing performance through sport-specific rehabilitation protocols.
