Sensory Enhanced Aquatics

***Currently our aquatics program is on pause. We apologize for the inconvenience.***

Our aquatics program is appropriate for children with sensory processing difficulties, developmental disorders, as well as disorders of the bones, joints, and muscles. Our Sensory Splash program uses a warm water pool, a multi-sensory approach to explore senses in water for sensory integration and modulation.

Sensory Splash is designed to increase the child’s comfort of being in the water while working on important therapeutic components and traditional land goals.
