Hello - just in case any of you missed the featured presentation of WaterWayBabies last month, I would like to share with you that I have several customers on NC. And I need your help to reach more parents and therapists so more kiddos can benefit...
This group has been created for ongoing connection/sharing among participants at the Durham, NC Aquatic Therapy for the Child Seminar offered by ARN March 19-21, 2009
Whether you are doing research, interested in doing it, wishing it were being done, or just wondering whether it's useful - this is the place to share your ideas and issues and questions.
This is for people from East Europe, a water developing countries to share experience, looking for problems solutions, networking.
Profile Information
- How are you involved in aquatic therapy?
- I've been an avid swimmer all my life. Lifeguard in high school. Taught swimming to kids ages 4-18 in Canada through the CRC when I lived in Toronto and couldn't get a nursing job. This experience paired with my NICU career taking care of preemies led me to develop the concept that is the construct behind WaterWayBabies.
- Your discipline or title (PT, OT, CTRS, ATC, SLP, Watsu practitioner, adapted aquatics instructor, whatever!)
- I am a BSN RN. My WSI is inactive. I'm also SCUBA certified, advanced. I currently working on my PhD in nursing.
- Location (city, state, country)
- Houston, TX, USA
- What temperature, depth(s) and approx dimensions is your therapy pool (if you have one):
- The pool I sell to parents is 30 inches tall and 30 inches deep, made of heavy plastic with a drain at the bottom. It comes with a water thermometer that shows the parent how warm to make the water.
- Do you have any teaching experience?
- Yes, as mentioned above, I taught kids all ages, but that was a long time ago. After that I taught infant swimming for several years, including my own two kids. More recently, I have been working with adults on an individual basis for stroke improvement and technique. This is on the side in addition to my business, WaterWayBabies.
- Main patient populations:
- Peds
- What unique products or services do you offer:
- WaterWayBabies is a very unique, effective, and inexpensive ($90+shipping) for parents to use at home as an adjunct to traditional therapeutic and aquatic interventions.

PS. I welcome comments and questions about the book, since it is written as an evolving model, just like we are always evolving with nature.
Thank you, Sulis for such a generous endorsement of my book. I hope it serves our aquatic therapist community as well as all those aspiring to an integral, natural approach to healing relationships.
