Aqua Therapy

by angelalkaring
I am having some trouble with my knees, so my doctor prescribed Aqua Therapy. I didn't know insurance would cover that! How awesome! For those who have trouble "moving" because of weight issues or fibromyalgia or arthritis,etc. you should really look into this. I was also amazed at how many locations offer this. Both of our local hospitals have therapy pools and so do many physical therapy offices... where the water is heated to 86-90 degrees(that feels so good esp. in this cold weather). Because of the waters bouyancy properties, there's no pressure on your joints, so it's easier to work out!!!
