What should I know about aqua therapy?

Aqua Therapy is physical therapy done in a warm water environment. The warm water allows for an increase in mobility while decreasing pain, muscle tightness, and swelling. The exercises done during Aqua Therapy can be very similar to those done during traditional land-based therapy, however many patients have an easier time performing them in the water with less pain and the same benefits if not more as land-based therapy.
