Warm Water Therapy Pool
Step into the 92-degree water and feel energized. Whether you’re an avid swimmer or looking for a fun fitness activity, Parkwood has a pool program for you. You don’t need to know how to swim to participate.
We know that swimming is great exercise. Aquatic exercise and fitness can also help to maintain mobility and flexibility or develop pre/post-operative strength.
Our pool is maintained at a comfortable 92 degrees Fahrenheit (33 degrees Celsius). The 4 ft. deep pool is accessible, with a lift, hand rails and wide steps. It is ideal for enjoying small aquafit classes run by qualified staff.
Please find our pool calendar and class descriptions linked below.
