Aquatic Therapy
Aquatic therapy is great for people that are not ready or able to perform land based exercises. The buoyancy of the water reduces the stress placed on the joints, and also works well with overweight individuals. The viscosity of water provides resistance for strengthening muscles with much less stress than if performed on land. Hydrostatic pressure decreases swelling and improves joint position awareness (proprioception) needed for joint sprains and muscle strains. The warmth of the water will increase blood flow to injured areas relaxing muscle spasms, decreasing back pain, and relief to other painful chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia.
