Healing Power of Aquatic Therapy Exercises

For patients who are in pain and are weakened due to an injury or disability, aquatic therapy is a great solution. The natural buoyancy of water reduces the stress on the body and helps patients exercise easier with less pain. Also, the natural pressure of water reduces joint and soft-tissue swelling and provides enough resistance to strengthen muscles.
