Aquatic therapy is a term that refers to exercises performed in water for relaxation, fitness, physical rehabilitation, and other therapeutic benefit. Exercise performed in the water can bring relief to those who suffer from various neuromuscular or musculoskeletal disorders. The specific properties of water make aquatic therapy much different from land therapy as individuals can use water for resistance in place of gravity or weights.
Water’s unique properties allow individuals to benefit from less pressure on the joints, reduced inflammation, and a safe environment to improve balance and strength. Aquatic therapy is also a great option for individuals who are unable to exercise on land as they can improve their strength and endurance to recover or improve from their condition. Lastly, aquatic therapy gives a mental boost to people who have endured a lengthy recovery with reduced activity levels. It allows them to get out and do something to further their recovery and provides that in a safe environment. All this while helping a person feel a return to normality.
