About Us
Dr. Ashley Plummer, PT, DPT, PCS founded Jax Kids Aquatics in 2023 after recognizing a lack of aquatic therapy services specifically catered to children in her local community. Her passion for aquatic therapy came early in her career when working in the inpatient rehabilitation setting with patients with brain injuries. She saw the impact that the water had on their ability to move more freely, while at the same time uplifting their spirits. She has continued to use aquatics throughout her career, furthering her knowledge through continuing education and hands-on training. Ashley understands the value the aquatic environment has on recovery, when a child's skills on land seem to have plateaued. Ashley enjoys coaching families on how to help their children succeed and reach their fullest potential.
