Grasping the essential concepts that Lynda imparts will keep your schedule full of patients. Whatever the question, Lynda has a simple, straightforward answer that makes things fun and fulfilling while providing information and movements that are exactly what is needed. 



Never feel at a loss again when a patient presents a new condition to you! 

Lynda has seen it all and has already figured it out.  Why re-invent the wheel when Lynda has the answers you’ve been seeking?


Respected by orthopedic surgeons…

“In the three decades I’ve been an orthopedic surgeon, there’s been only one pool program that I’ve recommended for my patients to try in order to prevent or postpone surgery, and that is Lynda Huey’s pool program.  If patients eventually do need surgery, I have them prehab with her to get strong before surgery, then use her effective post-operative rehab program.
The physical  benefits don’t come just from the water and its buoyancy and its mysterious effects on balance and proprioception, but they also depend on the quality of the water program itself.
If I were going to learn an aquatic rehab program, I would want to learn Lynda’s!
Lynda’s success comes from her passion for the advanced techniques she creates and the sixth sense she has developed over three decades of learning from each and every patient.”
Robert Klapper, M.D.

Here’s what people have to say about learning aquatic rehab from Lynda


Katey Eisenstein
“The course was very detailed and is suitable for all levels of knowledge. It is appropriate for those with no knowledge of aquatic therapy but can also provide new knowledge to those with experience in aquatic therapy.”
Katey Eisenstein, DPT
Physical therapist

Lindsay Fujinaka
“The aquatic program can be utilized for all levels ranging from orthopedic, neurological, and for athletes at any level. Following my completion of the aquatic rehab program, I am confident in my ability to treat all types of patients with this alternative program geared at reducing pain while building strength and function. The program is well balanced with clear instructions and concise messaging.”
Lindsay Graham, DPT
Physical therapist

Jessica Bufete
“When I started doing pool therapy, I had no prior aquatic rehab experience. Lynda Huey taught me her aquatic rehab program including exercises for all ability levels, injuries, and stages of rehab. She is particularly good at teaching effective cuing for correcting common mistakes and achieving proper form, offering modifications for exercises that might be painful or too difficult, and safe progressions. As a physical therapist I have used Lynda Huey’s program effectively in treating hundreds of patients with a variety of diagnoses. I would encourage anyone to give aquatic rehabilitation a try and to trust in the success of Lynda’s program.”
