Movable swimming pool floors are used in aquatic rehabilitation to provide a versatile and safe environment for patients to perform exercises and movements that may be difficult or impossible to do on land. The movable floor allows for the water level to be adjusted to the patient’s needs, providing a level of support and resistance that can help to improve strength, balance, and coordination.
One of the main reasons why movable pool floors are used in aquatic rehabilitation is because of the buoyancy provided by water. This buoyancy helps to reduce the amount of weight bearing on the joints, making it easier for patients to perform exercises and movements. This can be especially beneficial for patients recovering from injuries or surgeries to the lower extremities, such as knee or hip replacements, or for patients with conditions such as arthritis or fibromyalgia.
