The benefits of performing aquatic therapy in a warm pool are numerous. It is different from physiotherapy on land, by way that the warmth and apparent weightlessness experienced in a warm water pool will:

• reduce muscle tightness
• reduce pain
• make movements easier
• help regain skills, that are often lost on land
• enhance cardiovascular response to exercise
• enhance general fitness

For clients struggling with conventional land-based physiotherapy, aquatic therapy is ideal and advised as there is more rapid progression.
