HydroWorx Aquatic Therapy

On October 20th, 2020, Barabas Physical Therapy is bringing you the most advanced aquatic therapy in Erie, PA. The HydroWorx EVO Series harnesses the power of water for everyone from physical therapy patients to professional athletes.

This revolutionary therapy pool can provide truly amazing results for patients who are suffering from a wide range of diseases, injuries and conditions including:

  • Orthopedic and post-surgical rehab
  • Arthritis
  • Chronic Pain
  • Gait Instability
  • Traumatic Brain Injury
  • Spinal Cord Injury
  • Stroke
  • Cerebral Palsy

Aquatic therapy helps patients and athletes start rehabilitation much sooner because water provides a non-weight bearing environment. The HydroWorx EVO has many distinct features that set it apart from standard therapy pools.

  • Integrated water treadmill surface has a cushioned low-impact design with excellent traction
  • Variable water depth to challenge athletes or progress patients from water to land
  • Resistance jets essential for deep tissue massage, water therapy, rehabilitation, or sports performance training

The HydroWorx EVO opens a world of possibilities to patients who are unable to do traditional, land-based therapy. The buoyancy of the water supports the body. It provides low or no impact resistance that helps patients improve mobility, strength and function more rapidly than with traditional therapy alone.

Come see for yourself how Barabas Physical Therapy's HydroWorx Aquatic Therapy Pool uses the power of water to bring the most advanced aquatic therapy to you, right here in Girard, PA.
