Post operative water therapy has its advantages:
1.) Pain Reduction- The water tends to decrease the sensation of pain.
2.) Less chance of damage to the surgical repair- The water’s buoyancy eliminates gravity, decreasing the chance that re-injury might occur.
3.) Quicker return to activity- You no longer have to wait until you can perform weight-bearing moves on land.
