Water
is the ideal medium for
exercise or rehabilitation. When standing in shoulder depth water
body weight is reduced by 90%. Water decreases musculoskeletal
stress and impact on the joints. Warm water is also relaxing thereby
allowing individuals to move with greater mobility and less pain. By
using freestanding underwater exercise equipment in a pool, users
gain the general benefits of exercise without suffering from the
compression and impact forces that occur with gravity on dry land.
Consider
this: A 1995 Temple
University study showed that working out in
water can provide a highly
effective aerobic workout as effective as vigorous exercise on dry
land without endangering the joints.
