.Aquatic therapy uses the gentle resistance and buoyancy of water to help people recover strength, mobility, and confidence after stroke. In a warm, supportive pool, therapists guide safe, low-impact exercises that reduce joint stress, improve balance, and build endurance. Because water supports body weight, patients can move more freely, relearn gait patterns, and progress sooner than with land-based therapy alone. Sessions are tailored to individual goals—pain relief, range of motion, and functional independence—and can be especially helpful for those with weakness, spasticity, or fear of falling. Aquatic therapy offers a soothing, effective path to regaining function while minimizing discomfort and risk.
