Fenter Physical Therapy’s Schafer receives Geriatric Specialty Certificate for Aquatics

FPT Director of Marketing Sarah Schafer, PTA with Fenter Physical Therapy recently attended the 2018 National Aquatic Therapy Conference held in Chicago. The event was presented by the Aquatic Therapy & Rehab Institute (ATRI), and hosted by the Westin O’Hare.

Mrs. Schafer attended several aquatic therapy courses and participated in a variety of hands- on, in-pool courses to increase her knowledge about aquatic therapy techniques and safety for geriatric patients.

“The ATRI Conference was an excellent opportunity to learn about the newest trends in the aquatic therapy industry and to stay current on the latest research. Meeting leaders in the industry allowed me to exchange ideas and bring new information back to my clients.”

ATRI Conferences provide participants with networking opportunities, as well as hands-on educational workshops on aquatic therapy techniques and effective aquatic therapy programing.

“As an aquatic therapy professional, I am aware of the public demand for treatment, which not only provides results, but incorporates the latest research and information in the field. Attending this conference provided educational opportunities which will benefit me as a PTA and will increase the safety and quality of my therapy.”
