Chapter 9 Outline
Aquatic Therapy – use of water for rehabilitation purposes o Lung expansion = inhibited d/t hydrostatic
pressure against the chest wall
➢ Provide treatment that impossible or difficult on
4. Cardiac Dysfunction – Pts with angina, abnormal bp,
land
heart disease or compromised pump mechanism
DEFINITION OF AQUATIC EXERCISE require close monitoring
Aquatic Exercise – use of water for therapeutic interventions
5. Small, Open Wounds and Lines
including:
➢ Small, open wounds and tracheotomy = waterproof
➢ Stretching dressing
➢ Endurance training
Contraindications
cnd | 1
PROPERTIES OF WATER o The proportionality of depth and pressure
allows patients to perform exercise more
➢ Have physiological implications
easily when closer to the surface

to work harder to maintain AQUATIC TEMP AND THERAPEUTIC EXERCISE
his or her position in pool.
➢ Pt impairment & intervention goals = water temp
▪ Application of equipment
selection
(glove/paddle/boot) increases
o Cooler – high intensity exercise
drag and resistance as the patient
o Warmer – mobility, flexibility and muscle
moves the extremity through water
relaxation
Thermodynamics – water temp has an effect on the body ➢ Ambient air temp 3 C > water temp
