"Pediatric Movement Center (PMC) is family-centered and passionate about providing the best care to the children and families in the Tri-state region."

Skilled aquatic therapy is completed in a pool, with a temperature-regulated system, based on the foundation of zero gravity and buoyancy of a person’s body weight. 

Research has shown that aquatic therapy promotes a reduction in muscle tone, improved extensibility of soft tissue and global relaxation of our bodies. The buoyancy of the water provides postural stability to our bodies, therefore, increasing efficiency of cardiovascular, respiratory and digestive and musculoskeletal systems. The buoyancy of the water also provides consistent proprioceptive input through the trunk and extremities, resulting in improvement in core strength and postural control.
