Lap swims offer an opportunity for excellent zero-impact exercise as you swim the length of our 25-yard heated outdoor lap pool. Swimmers must be comfortable swimming in deep water and be able to complete a full length before stopping.

Water Walking is a great self-guided therapy that uses mild river current and resistance to maximize your low impact exercise regimen. Aqua shoes recommended.
