We want to assist you in improving your performance in sport, whether recreational or for competition, and help with preventing future injuries.

Aquatic Therapy

Performing therapeutic exercises in the water has many advantages, including:

  • Buoyancy: the "unweighting" effect of the pool allows people to perform some activities in the water that they may be unable to perform on land, such as walking for someone with comprised weight-bearing on their legs or someone with back pain.
  • Resistance: the water provides a natural resistance to everyday movements allowing your muscles to become stronger.
  • Hydrostatic pressure: the light pressure of the water against the body combined with movement serve as a natural way to decrease swelling and edema.

Vestibular Rehabilitation

CSPT has therapists specially trained in the treatment of vestibular disorders. Problems with dizziness can be relieved by learning the correct exercises to alleviate these symptoms. Controlling these symptoms will allow you to return to your previous level of activity while decreasing the worry of falling or becoming dizzy. Available at our Downtown location.
