Aquatic therapeutic exercise is now a part of Rebound Sports and Orthopedic Physical Therapy’s comprehensive orthopedic physical therapy program.

Rebound Sports and Orthopedic Physical Therapy introduced the AquaCiser in February 2008 to provide superior patient care to Alaskans and reduce patient recovery time.

• Orthopedic
• Lower extremity strengthening
• Ligament injury rehabilitation
• Lower extremity post-surgical rehabilitation
• Acute / chronic low back pain
• Gait analysis
• Sports Medicine
• General conditioning
• Lower extremity sprains, strains, and rehabilitation
• Geriatrics
• General conditioning
• Movement limits due to arthritic pain
• Obesity
• General weakness
• Loss of endurance
• Weight loss

Components of the AquaCiser:

• Variable speed treadmill (0 mph to 9.9 mph)
• Reversible treadmill
• Resistance through a given range of motion provides hydrokinetic exercise
• Buoyancy reduces the effects of gravity
• Heated water allows greater tissue extensibility
• Improves outcomes for total joint replacements
• Resistance jets provide for greater strength and conditioning
• Therapeutic jets provide massage
