Introduction to MS Aquatic Fitness

Uploaded on Apr 2, 2015
Aquatic exercise provides a comfortable option for people with multiple sclerosis (MS) due to its supportive, reduced-impact environment. This instructional video demonstrates a wide variety of shallow-water exercises designed specifically for the MS community, addressing areas of balance, strength, range of motion, mobility, and aerobic endurance. Activities are performed at various impact levels, offering options to personalize the workout. Following the 30-minute demonstration, the program concludes with a sample workout routine that runs through all of the exercise activities and their variations.
