Aquatherapy, in which the child receives therapy in the water, is very effective for children with cerebral palsy who have muscle, movement, and coordination issues. Exercising in the water allows children to exercise and move more freely, and also allows for less impact on the joints and bones.

Aquatherapy also allows kids with CP a safe and effective way to get the cardiovascular exercise they need.

Aquatherapy is covered under physical therapy in most insurance policies. If your insurance company denies your request for aquatherapy, or doesn’t allow your child the amount that she needs, contact us to find out how we can help.
