Yesterday’s funding announcement marked an important step toward restoring access to aquatic therapy for thousands of Albertans. With $3.25 million committed toward the $6.5 million needed to redevelop the Glenrose therapeutic pool, momentum is building, but there is still more work to do.
Shannell Corrodas-Kasper, a recreation therapist at the Glenrose, knows firsthand the impact of the therapeutic pool: “The water is such a unique intervention, there really is nothing like it. There are so many times when we can have a patient in the water who is moving totally different. Their muscles feel different and their mood feels different in a way that is not comparable to land.”
