Aquatic Therapy

Thanks to the buoyancy of water, aquatic therapy can be an excellent way to accelerate the healing process. In some cases, aquatic therapy may be an appropriate avenue of treatment for physical therapy patients.

With two therapy pools at South Shore Hospital, you're never far from the aquatic therapy you need.
