The Jodie Foster Aquatic PavilionMore and more people are discovering the advantages of a water workout. Long revered as being a low stress, low risk method of rehabilitation from injury, aquatic therapy is rapidly catching on as a preferred method of exercise, especially for those with physical challenges like arthritis or fragility due to previous injury. The warm water aquatic therapy pool in the Jodie Foster Aquatic Pavilion offers a full range of aquatic exercise classes for adults with varying degrees of physical ability. The facility is also available for aquatic physical therapy.
High Tech Fitness GymThe fitness gym at the Saban Center features state-of-the-art exercise equipment for all types of fitness goals. The equipment is computerized and individuals are given their own personalized Smartkey, a small, wireless microchip device that is pre-programmed by a personal trainer to accommodate an individual’s workout needs and preferences – from hobbies and favorite workout activity to maximum heart rate and physical limitations. It eliminates the need for cumbersome workout charts and guides users through all stages of their program. The system provides a safe, guided and effective workout that uses accountability and personalized feedback to keep users motivated.
Physical Therapy Services Featuring Complete PTMPTF proudly offers physical therapy services featuring CompletePT and renowned pool and land physical therapy expert, Lynda Huey, MS. Guided by Huey’s expertise, clients will transition from water to land-based physical therapy. The water’s resistance provides the workload for regaining strength, but land therapy works against the pull of gravity, helping clients regain strength to perform normal daily activities. CompletePT’s licensed, professional physical therapy staff offer innovative treatment programs and will adjust exercises, stretches and functional training to meet specific needs and lifetyles.
