Making a Splash

Every child grows and develops at his or her own pace. Sometimes, additional help is needed in order for your child to reach developmental milestones. The earlier a challenge is addressed, the better the future success for your child.

PNE is pleased to be one of the few providers of pediatric aquatic therapy in Northeast Indiana. Using the buoyancy, resistance and sensory input provided by the water, Physical and Occupational Therapists provide play-based activities to improve functional movement, strength, muscle relaxation, and body awareness. Additional benefits include increased communication skills, following directions, improving/initiating eye contact, and social interaction. Aquatic therapy sessions take place at neighborhood YMCA’s.
