USAquatics designed this 2005 winner of, Aquatics International, Dream Facility-Therapy Pool. This therapy pool is the first of its kind, with a ceiling mounted lift that can go anywhere in the room. Special consideration was given to the design of the access in and out of the pool. Railings are strategically placed to help ease the transition in and out of the water.
The pool features five different water depths with a flat floor at each depth, and steps with handrails between each level. The flat floor eases therapy and the removable stainless steel rails give patients a stable handhold and they also separate the different elevations.
