In this blog, we’re going to discuss what aqua therapy is and why it’s beneficial for many different people.
Understanding Aqua Therapy
Aqua therapy is a broad category of therapies that all include water. Because our property at Avalon Malibu is located by the sea, we have the perfect setting to explore the many different benefits of aqua therapy. Let’s dive into some of the most popular types of aqua therapy that we offer.
Ai Chi
When you choose Ai Chi, you’re doing water exercises that place an emphasis on breathing and resistance training. This is an excellent way to get some exercise and focus on your physical health. This method is primarily known for its ability to build strength.
Aquatic PNF
Aquatic PNF is a unique option that consists of following your therapist as they construct you to complete a variety of movements. The exercises are completed from a variety of positions. This is a great way to focus on both your physical and mental health, as well as expend some energy.
Fluid Moves
When you participate in this type of therapy, you’re immersed in warm liquid. This simulates the experience of being weightless. If you’re looking for a form of water therapy that will help you feel relaxed and more centered, then this could be the right option for you. At Avalon Malibu, we’ve seen the many different benefits that can come from this type of therapy.
Combining Aqua Therapy With Other Modalities
If you’re going to be using any of these water therapy methods, then consider if you should combine them with other options, such as individual psychotherapy. This can be an excellent way to make sure that you’re getting comprehensive support.
