Western Montana Aquatic Therapy

Expert Aquatic Therapy Now Available Near You

Aquatic therapy is a great option if pain, stiffness, or limited mobility are holding you back. All of our clinics offer advanced, warm-water therapy designed to help you move more freely, heal faster, and feel better—all in a supportive and soothing environment.

​

Why Aquatic Therapy Works

Aquatic therapy uses the natural properties of water—buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, and resistance—to create a low-impact, high-results therapy experience.

Here’s how it helps:

• Reduces joint stress, making movement less painful for conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and back pain

• Improves circulation through the gentle compression of warm water on skin, muscles, and joints

• Relieves chronic muscle aches and muscle spasms

• Provides a safe, supportive environment for those who are overweight or recovering from surgery

• Encourages better balance, strength, and mobility without the fear of falling or re-injury

Aquatic therapy is ideal for patients of all ages and fitness levels—and it’s especially effective for people who find traditional exercise difficult or painful.
