WATER REHABILITATION
Susannah has been working with physical therapists, developing water
rehabilitation for sports injuries, back problems, strokes, knee and hip
replacements, and most major illnesses. She developed an Aquatic Rehab
program for a Rehab Hospital. The unique properties of water’s buoyancy and
added resistance allow for a faster, less painful and more cost-effective
recovery. Susannah can develop a sport-specific training and rehab program
for the athlete. She can also work with the bed-ridden patient.
Through the years, Susannah Ensign has established a reputation as a "Miracle
Worker" in all aspects of swimming. She and her staff are highly qualified
