equipment supplies

Why is it so hard to find supplies of pool equipment, not the everyday stuff but more specialist things? If you look up hydrotherapy in a search engine then there's loads about animal therapy and colonic irrigation but it's hard to find many suppliers. If you look up aquatic therapy then the situation will be difficult as well because the search enging will pick up on "therapy".

Saw today on the internet a blog which claimed to be the first aquatic therapy blog. If I can find it again I'll check the date it started because it was the same month as this one, nut here's hoping that this one will have claim to the title!

hydrotherapy

Should aquatic physiotherapy be promoting the effects of the water we drink as well as the effect of exercise in water?

aquatic pphysiotherapy research

Good research seems to be lacking in aquatic physical therapy. There's not solid research quanitfying the risks associated with head out of water immersion. Should that be a cause for concern?

metaceter

There's a idea in aquatic physical therapy which is pooly defined, the thing called metacenter (metacentre). The British school of thought called Halliwick makes a big thing of it but if you look at their literature it's all a bit vague, something to do with rolling in the water if you change your shape. Like a lot of ideas in physical therapy it has caught on without specific research in the clinical sphere.

evidence and aquatic physical therapy

How good is the research to support aquatic physical therapy? It is among the oldest forms of physical therapy but is age enough?

the first blog

this is the start of a new blog. there's lots to say about aquatic physical therapy so let's look to the future for this.
