Quality pediatric aquatic therapy
Meghan Bochnak PT, DPT, PCS is a board certified pediatric physical therapist who has spent most of her career as a lead aquatic therapist at a renowned children's hospital. She received her doctorate of physical therapy in 2011 from Boston University, and has worked in a variety of pediatric settings including schools, hospitals, clinics, and early intervention.
She has a passion for water and specializes in neurological and neuromuscular disorders. She has seen the beneficial effects that aquatic therapy has on a child's function on land. She delivers effective aquatic techniques including Halliwick, adapted swimming, strength and balance training, and motor learning principles.
Custom therapeutic program
You will work with Meghan to set achievable, realistic goals that are important to you and your child. Whether your goals are for improved mobility on land, or to learn a swimming program that enhances your child's independence in the water, a custom-tailored program will be established. It is encouraged that you as the caregiver will learn the aquatic techniques and even get in the pool with your child, so as to carry over the program outside of therapy for highest success!
Home based services
Services are provided throughout the greater San Diego area, and sessions will be conducted at your personal or community pool. This means no travel and more convenience with changing in and out of swimming gear. Be sure to apply sunscreen and have your child wear a rash guard or wet suit to help maintain body warmth throughout the session. Each visit will last for 45-55 minutes.
