Aquatic Therapy Programs and Water Aerobics

Aquatic therapy programs and water aerobics

A) are not frequently used in patients with MS because of the fear and anxiety related to risk of drowning.
B) can be an appropriate and effective intervention because the water provides graded resistance to movement while the buoyancy aids balance.
C) should be done in warm pools; the warm temperature reduces spasticity.
D) should be used only as a last resort because of the time/expense required with aquatic programs.
