Aquatic PT and Fitness Programs

Aquatic Physical Therapy

Columbia Physical Therapy, P.C. offers aquatic therapy at the Greenbush Area YMCA swimming pool.  This is a heated pool with deep and shallow ends.  Aquatic therapy is great for treating athletic injuries, post-surgical rehab, and chronic conditions. The positive effects of buoyancy and the use of water’s natural resistance make aquatic therapy a unique therapeutic option.  Enjoy the sauna, steam room, or whirlpool after your aquatics class.  For more information, please contact us at (518) 479-7172.

Fitness Programs Options:

Aquatic Fitness Program- This program allows you to continue your therapist led aquatics classes at the YMCA with us after you are discharged from formal aquatic therapy.

One- on-One Fitness Training- We offer one-on-one personalized training sessions. These sessions can be used to build and supervise an individualized exercise program or to revise your current program.  Meet with a certified strength and conditioning specialist (C.S.C.S.) or one of our physical therapists to build a program with your current fitness level and goals in mind. Your one-on-one sessions will be customized to your specific needs.

Independent Gym Fitness Program- This program allows you to continue to use our gym after you are discharged from active physical therapy. Our gym has a full strengthening circuit comprised of 15 stations, as well as various aerobic conditioning equipment.  Upon approaching your final day of physical therapy your therapist can orient you to our fitness equipment. During this consult the therapist can address any questions you have, discuss your fitness goals and give advice on the various machines and exercises.
