The definitive guide to a fitness and healing breakthrough from the
leading water exercise trainer and a renowned sports physical
therapist
Millions of people are discovering the benefits of working out in
water--Olympic athletes, dancers, fitness enthusiasts, workout rookies,
pregnant women, seniors, even those recovering from injuries or surgery.
Working against water's natural resistance makes for a healthier, more
balanced workout than is possible on land--with virtually no risk of
damage to the body. Water exercise is so safe that doctors and physical
therapists are prescribing it as part of injury rehabilitation programs.

surgery can use the water healing workouts in this book, developed with

or even improving fitness.
