Julie Bergmann PT, OCS has been treating patients in Orange County for over 22 years. She founded Orange County’s first Physical Therapist owned aquatic clinic. Her goal is to provide patients with alternative methods of treatment by utilizing warm water therapy to facilitate a less painful and faster recovery. Along with a physical therapy degree, Julie is board certified as an Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS), as well as a Certified Kinesio Taping Practitioner (CKTP).
WHY WATER for REHAB? Recent research has shown that aquatic therapy speeds the recovery process allowing for an earlier return to normal activities.
Our patients enjoy a soothing weightless environment while still receiving benefits such as increased strength and flexibilty comparable to land exercises.

Julie Bergmann at Southern California Aquatic and Physical Therapy uses mirror therapy quite often when one area is affected by the CRPS. She has been so helpful to me in my journey. Her office is located in Huntington Beach, CA (Orange County, CA). I highly recommend her. I am currently a patient at SCAT. My focus though has been on water therapy as I have CRPS in many locations. Feel free to contact her or PM me for more information. 16271 Beach Boulevard, Huntington Beach, CA 92647 Phone:(714) 375-1755
