Why Stay at ATRI Host Hotels?
Staying at
ATRI host hotels offers great networking opportunities to meet your
colleagues and make new friends. When you book your overnight room in the
Aquatic Therapy block of rooms, we are able to guarantee a certain number of
overnight rooms at the hotel and that reduces the overall costs associated
with producing the conference. These savings allow ATRI to offer competitive
registration fees and the services that are included with those fees, such
as hands-on pool education. And you can’t beat the convenience to run
between your overnight room, the pool and lecture room when staying at the
host hotel.

What's the Difference Between Specialty Certificate Programs and the ATRI Certification?
Specialty Certificate Programs are 3-day, 15-hour programs for which you receive a certificate of completion at the end of the course. The certificate will be in an area of emphasis such as Lumbar Stabilization, Pediatrics, Chronic Pain, etc. The certificate is bestowed because of the educational hours you put into the course.
The ATRI Certification is a 3-hour comprehensive exam that will test your ability to meet the Aquatic Therapy and Rehabilitation Industry Standards to practice. The exam is OPTIONAL and IS NOT part of the Specialty Certificate Program. You may take the exam at any of our educational conferences or online anytime.

1618 - AquaStretch - (6:00-7:00 pm - Classroom Only) - George Eversaul, MA, APH - 1 credit hour equal to 1 CEC/.1 CEU - "I have had many types of therapeutic bodywork through the years, but none were as IMMMEDIATELY effective as an AquaStretch water treatment, from a trained massage therapist. Years of scar tissue, tight groin muscles, lower back pain and other muscles were gradually released wtih NO residual pain. I left the warmed pool area physically balanced, pain free and emotionally well - ready to 'party' instead of fall asleep! Both personally and professionally, I believe George Eversaul's work will eventually become as recognized for its effectiveness as Igor Burdenko's." -- Kathy Zanardelli, MEd, Aquatic Fitness Specialist/Personal Trainer, Women's Wellness Specialties
