The water environment has many positive aspects contributing to the good therapeutic results achieved in the rehabilitation of children with single-body scoliosis. In the aquatic environment there are many phenomena such as buoyancy force, hydrostatic pressure, temperature or resistance, which have been used in many ways in various therapeutic methods.
Water, as an environment for exercise, positively affects healthy people in many respects, and additionally, through appropriate selection of exercises, it has a special influence on specific disease entities. There are many specialized forms of therapy
in a water environment intended not only for the treatment of postural defects, but also for example in the case of neurological diseases. You can present many indications for exercises
