Pomona Valley Health Centers — Aquatic Therapy (Chino Hills)

Pomona Valley Health Centers (PVHC) is a division of Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center, one of the Inland Empire’s most trusted healthcare institutions. The Chino Hills location offers Medicare-certified aquatic physical therapy services in a warm-water therapy pool specifically designed for rehabilitation. As a hospital-affiliated medical group, PVHC brings clinical rigor, physician oversight, and insurance coverage to every patient’s aquatic therapy program — making it one of the most accessible and credentialed aquatic therapy providers in San Bernardino County.

Aquatic therapy at PVHC Chino Hills is conducted in a warm-water pool equipped with lifts for full accessibility and staffed by two lifeguards during every session. The buoyancy of the water reduces gravitational load on joints, allowing patients to move more freely and begin rehabilitation earlier than would be possible on land. Hydrostatic pressure helps manage swelling and edema, while warm water promotes circulation, muscle relaxation, and pain relief. Each patient receives a comprehensive evaluation by a certified physical therapist before beginning treatment, and all aquatic therapy sessions are individually tailored to the patient’s specific diagnosis and recovery goals.

Conditions treated include back injuries, chronic pain, fibromyalgia, balance disorders, joint replacements, multiple sclerosis, obesity, osteoporosis, Parkinson’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, scoliosis, and stroke recovery. Aquatic therapy at PVHC is also an effective tool for patients recovering from surgery. Most major insurance plans are accepted, including Medicare and Medicaid. A physician and physical therapist evaluation is required prior to beginning the program. The aquatic therapy program is also available at the PVHC La Verne location.
