I live in St. Louis, MO and you would think in a great big city like this that there would be more than ONE pediatric aquatic therapy center. NOPE! There is only Ranken Jordan Children's Hospital in North St. Louis. I drive over 45 minutes on a good traffic day to get to Ranken Jordan for two hours of aquatic therapy each week. The reason for aquatic therapy is that it is less evasive than regular therapy and everyone has seen better improvement with my mobility when I have aquatic therapy. I did aquatic therapy at Ranken Jordan in 2006. I enjoyed it a lot and I did very well. I am happy to be back.
I am going to post pictures and blog about each week of therapy. I hope to keep this as an inspirational journey through therapy and to help keep me motivated during times when I don't feel like going on.
If you have a child that needs therapy and you live in the St. Louis area, please check out Ranken Jordan Children's Hospital.
