Swimming

Therapeutic swimming (hydrotherapy) is one of the most popular programs offered by ILAN, both as a leisure activity and as therapy. Swimming contributes to muscle development and improves the physical, mental, and social well-being of children and adults alike. Swimming also builds self-confidence and self-esteem.
ILAN offers therapeutic swimming at locations throughout Israel, including some ILAN kindergartens, schools, and enrichment centers. Children and adults participate once or twice a week in one- and two-hour sessions held in specially equipped pools. Participants are grouped by age and the sessions are adjusted to match the physical capabilities of the participants.
