Aquatic therapy scheduled for a splashy debut at Parrish Healthcare
TITUSVILLE, FL. (June 28, 2022): Less pain, more gain. That’s the advantage for those with orthopedic arthritis, rheumatic and other health conditions of the aquatic therapy programs about to begin July 5th at Parrish Healthcare Center (formerly Parrish Health & Fitness) in Titusville.
“Aquatic therapy is a lot gentler on joints,” said Parrish Healthcare Terri Moccio, Doctor of Physical Therapy. “Water provides older adults more confidence to move and is less strenuous and painful on joints for those with orthopedic conditions. Physical therapists work closely with each patient to create goals and customize a program to help people increase their mobility, flexibility, balance and to get back to enjoying their lives.”
Physical therapy is prescribed by primary care or orthopedic physicians, and is helpful for a variety of age groups. To learn more about how aquatic therapy can benefit a patient regardless of age or condition, and the programs available beginning July 5, please contact 321-268-6181 or visit the Parrish website at www.parrishhealthcare.com/rehabilitation. Referrals can be faxed to 321-268-6769.
