The HydroWorx® aquatic therapy pool at The Abbey combines warm water, resistance jets, and an underwater treadmill to support rehabilitation, pain relief, and total-body wellness — all with dramatically reduced stress on joints.
Walk or jog in warm water at adjustable speeds — building endurance and restoring gait with up to 80% less body weight on joints.
Directional water jets provide progressive resistance for strength training, balance work, and cardiovascular exercise.
The pool floor rises and lowers to customize buoyancy — allowing therapists to precisely control weight-bearing during recovery.
Water maintained between 88–94°F to relax muscles, improve circulation, and enhance the effectiveness of every session.
HydroWorx® is the gold standard in aquatic therapy technology, used by professional sports teams, hospitals, and senior living communities across the country. At The Abbey, our licensed therapists use this system to help residents recover faster, move better, and live more comfortably.
Earlier mobilization after hip, knee, or shoulder surgery — with less pain and faster results than traditional land-based therapy.
Warm water and buoyancy support gait training for stroke recovery, Parkinson's management, and balance disorders.
Water immersion reduces gravitational load on inflamed joints, allowing movement and exercise that would otherwise be too painful on land.
Aquatic treadmill walking builds aerobic capacity, strengthens the heart, and improves endurance — at any fitness level.
Aquatic therapy in the HydroWorx® pool supports a wide range of conditions — from post-surgical recovery to everyday wellness maintenance.
Post-operative rehab for hip, knee, and shoulder replacements — allowing earlier weight-bearing in a safe, controlled environment.
Controlled aquatic movement strengthens stabilizing muscles and improves coordination to reduce the risk of falls.
Warm water buoyancy takes pressure off painful joints, making movement possible and therapeutic where land-based exercise cannot.
Water-supported movement facilitates neurological retraining, gait restoration, and upper-limb coordination following a stroke.
Low-impact aquatic exercise strengthens the cardiovascular system without the strain of high-intensity land-based workouts.
For residents seeking a full-body workout, the underwater treadmill and resistance jets provide an effective, enjoyable alternative to the gym.
