Great book! September 5, 2008 This book has done wonders for me. I have a bad back and I am currently in physical therapy. I brought this book to my doctor and he highlighted the exercises that I should do and told me the ones I shouldn't. It's really nice to exercise the CORRECT way in the pool.
WATER EXERCISE MADE EASY September 13, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
We havet a lap pool in our home and actually wanted DVD to show us a few acqua exercises that would suit our needs (sports and medical injury), but as no DVD exists we searched for a book. There are many to choose from and in "reading through" some of them, decided on the Water Exercise because it covered a multitude of health needs. When it arrived we were pleased as it is extremely easy to follow and the illustrations are very helpful. We made the right decision!

i had a hip resufacing done 5/08/2007; this book was very helpful in showing me exercises to add to what i already know toward rehab. well laid out with good pictures that help to illustrate the written text. this is a good buy for anyone who's looking for guidance during the hip surgery/rehabilitation phase.

This book was fantastic. It has great exercises and therapy exercises for the water. I use them all the time now. I would buy it again if I had too.
pros and cons July 13, 2006 14 out of 17 found this review helpful
The book is written simply and effectively in helping you understand how to do the exercise and the illustrations are good but I was surprised when I got it to see how many required equipment (like little hand paddles). I was hoping for just straight exercises with little to no pool aids needed. Otherwise it was good.
