Patients enter the pool using the ladder or a hydraulic lift chair.
The Swim-Ex can easily accommodate two to three patients at a time. Patients only need to bring their bathing suits or shorts and a T-shirt. There are separate men's and women's locker rooms complete with lockers, showers, soap, towels and changing areas. Licensed physical therapists and physical therapist assistants, who are skilled in aquatic physical therapy, will provide treatment. A physician referral and insurance authorization is needed to participate in aquatic physical therapy.
