Aquatic Therapy

Inova Physical Therapy Center in Woodbridge and Inova Loudoun Hospital's Leesburg location offer aquatic (pool) therapy to assist in healing and exercise performance.

Aquatic therapy can be especially beneficial because the buoyancy of the water assists in supporting the weight of the patient and decreasing the amount of stress on the joints. The warm water can also relax muscles and increase blood flow to injured areas.
