Karen and Gabby have both gained a better quality of life by using the HydroWorx pool at Pieters Family Life Center, Heritage Christian Family in Rochester, NY. Hear from them how their lives have improved through aquatic physical therapy.

Karen first started exercising at Heritage Christian Family for weight management purposes. Water walking enabled her to get exercise without impacting her joints due to water's displacement of weight. These workouts allow her to build up flexibility and endurance that she may struggle with when exercising on land. Aquatic therapy has also improved Karen's mood, making her happier overall.

For Gabby, coming to the wellness center means working on athletic conditioning and enjoying time in the water. Simply being there brings Gabby joy, but as an athlete, water walking and completing other exercises in the water help her build up strength as she works against the drag of the water. After completing activities in the HydroWorx pools, regular workouts become much easier to do on land.

Both of these women have experienced a better quality of life through increased physical fitness and mental wellbeing from HydroWorx aquatic wellness pools. The class also allows them to socialize with one another and other classmates, proving that HydroWorx pools can benefit your mental, physical and social health.

There are two main features of HydroWorx pools shown in this video — the adjustable sinking floor and support bars. First, the entire pool floor is adjustable in height. You can raise it to the top of the pool for people in wheelchairs or that otherwise have mobility challenges. Then, you can lower the floor into the pool to unload part or all of their body weight and prepare them for their physical therapy.

Another great aspect of accessibility HydroWorx offers is the removable support bars. As you see in the video, the bars are great for maintaining stability. In the case of group classes like this, they also serve as pool separators so that each attendee has their own space to complete exercises. When they're no longer needed in the pool space, you can easily remove them so you have the entire HydroWorx pool area for aquatic physical wellness.
