HydroTrack is a unique physical therapy modality available at Ingalls Family Care Center in Flossmoor. An “underwater” treadmill, the HydroTrack provides buoyancy to reduce impact on joints during rehabilitation. The therapy is most often used to condition the back and lower extremities. HydroTrack therapy is appropriate for individuals with a wide range of illness or injuries, including problems of the back or joints, arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, Multiple Slerosis and Parkinson's Disease.
