After care programs are available to those clients who wish to continue with their aquatic exercise regimen on an independent, self-directed basis. Pool exercise fees are charged monthly. “Buddy Sessions” are encouraged, though pool supervision is provided at all times during client usage.
At Lake Tahoe, only MBPT uses a full-sized, heated, covered pool.
What to Expect
Clients are scheduled for an initial evaluation in the office prior to the start of aquatic physical therapy. Individualized programs are developed based on the client’s need. Treatments usually consist of water exercises as well as manual therapy to promote recovery. Clients are often progressed to group exercises as they become more independent. Office physical therapy sessions are often integrated with the aquatics sessions to determine functional progress.
