The aquatics program is scheduled as needed for each client and is offered primarily as an extension of an individual's land-based therapy plan of care. Continuation in aquatics is based on an individual's plan of care, with referral initiating from the primary physician or NBT land-based therapist. It must be determined by the therapist(s) that treatment in a water medium is appropriate to achieve specific therapy outcomes. Your therapist will discuss specific goals for aquatic therapy and discuss with you the length of time that aquatic based therapy will be appropriate.

Parents or individual adults receiving physical can also initiate the process by inquiring about aquatics and discussing it with the land-based therapist. If it is determined that treatment in the water is indicated, the land-based therapist fills out the referral form and provides the client or family with an information packet.
