Introduction
Being in water is joyful for a lot of people. There are several benefits in exercising underwater. For people of all ages. Even for companion pets. Physiotherapists across the world recommend hydrotherapy for muscular and bone recuperation, for weight loss treatment, exercises for joints e.g. rehab after knee cap or hip joint replacement or spinal injury; for reduced joint inflammation during recovery, as hydrostatic pressure promotes circulation. Evidence based aquatic therapy is known to be useful in the treatment of hemophilia. Paediatric care for children with special needs (e.g. cerebral palsy, autism, ADHD) is recommended with in-water activities.
Trends
New age fitness trainers find aqua-exercises for fitness and wellness through underwater running, cycling, aerobics, yoga, zumba and pilates. FitPool is a compact above-ground water pool for above use in a small space of 250 sq.ft, assembled in just one day’s time. It offers water depth close to 4 feet. Its filtration system keeps water clean for several months, without need for refilling. Daily 10-15 minutes of cleaning the pool walls and floor is enough for maintaining the pool hygiene. The high volume water propulsion pump creates waves in water for under water jogging, hydro-pressure massage and continuous swimming.
