WaterMotion™

What is the WaterMotion Program?

A water therapy class designed to increase range of motion, flexibility, balance and strength. All Aquarobics™ programming is designed under the guidance of a registered physical therapist.

Why use water for therapy?

• Water provides support for your body, takes the weight off your joints and allows them to move freely to achieve a full range of motion.
• Water helps strengthen opposing muscle groups by providing resistance for maximum muscular toning.
  
  

Who should take WaterMotion?

• Joint replacements:
  The water absorbs the weight off the new joint and allows it to move freely. There are no overly aggressive movements in WaterMotion, only stretching and muscle conditioning.
• Fibromyalgia:
  Studies clearly show that with consistent exercise, people with Fibromyalgia will feel an improved sense of well-being, increased endurance and decreased pain.
• Pre and post-surgery
• Back problems:
  WaterMotion programming concentrates on muscle balance -- opposing muscle groups on the front and back of the body. WaterMotion has an extensive muscle-conditioning program just for the abdominal wall, which in turn protects the back.
• Joint inflammation
• Arthritis or limited movement:
  The effects of arthritis may range from slight discomfort to a more serious disability. Regular exercise is a proven benefit for those with arthritis. WaterMotion will reduce pain, stiffness and increase the range of motion in the joint.
