Fibromyalgia/Chronic
Fatigue/Myofasical Pain Rehab
Pain sufferers relax! Water Moves provides the individualized
program you’ve been looking for, in a caring and supportive
environment.
Born out of the physical limitations of it’s developer,
(Judy Doyle), this unique program is a gentle form
of exercise that meet the needs of most participants who
suffer from FM, chronic pain, arthritis or motor vehicle
accident injuries.
Once in the water, participants are given an individual
evaluation/orientation in order to develop a program that
is suitable for them.
The focus of the program is pain relief. We encourage participants
to ‘stick with it’ but to always stop short
of more pain. We coach people to be aware of their body
and mind – the whole person. There are many benefits
beyond the physical. Classes are available with MOVES selected
to match the ability of the individual within each program.
Deeper warm water (90°-94°) is the ideal environment for participants
who suffer from many types of pain because it allows greater
range of motion while the body is submerged. Chiropractic
and Massage in warm water is much more effective because
muscles can relax.
Classes may start with a minimum of 20 minutes and gradually
work up to 40 minutes of continuous activity with stretching
and relaxation elements at each class. A maximum class size
of 8 participants per class with a minimum of 3 instructors/therapists
allows for individual attention. Our doctor (Chiropractor)
examines and may treat in the water at some sessions.
IN POOL MASSAGE IS AVAILABLE BY APPOINTMENT.
Physicians, physiotherapists, chiropractors, occupational
therapists and rehabilitation consultants make referrals
and the program may be reimbursed through private insurance
plans.
All Program fees are based on types of service requested.
Our support & understanding of this non-visible limitation allows for progression into the Community Programs.
