Those at the top never stop trying to do better. They constantly strive to run faster, jump higher, throw further, hit the ball further, increase their accuracy, move more efficiently, shorten their reaction time: for these athletes, there is always room for improvement.
Understanding the science of physical preparation and how it relates to particular sports plays an intimately fundamental part in reaching those higher levels of performance.
Water is an excellent medium for achieving maximal exercise levels in those with or without disabilities. Water has several unique qualities, such as buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, thermodynamics, and specific gravity, which makes it the idea choice for patients with musculoskeletal, cardiopulmonary, or neurological impairments. As well, as individuals with general deconditioning and debility.
Aquatic therapy can be used for both acute and chronic conditions. Aquatic therapy provides a useful and safe environment for initiating an exercise therapy program and can complement all phases of the rehabilitation process.
The physical properties of water provide certain benefits to patients that land-based programs do not offer, making aquatic therapy the ideal rehabilitation environment for many individuals and conditions.
