People don't realize that even with aquatic therapy, you still have to be careful because you CAN hurt yourself.
I went for aquatic PT before my surgery. After one session, the pain was unbearable. I had to take a couple of sessions off because I could not walk because of the pain.
When I returned to PT, the therapist was very surprised that I had such an affect. So was I! He tried to modify the exercises, but he didn't do a good job. I've had aquatic PT before so I know how good it can be. My goodness, the warm water alone is therapeutic.
Now I am doing land therapy as a post-op patient. My therapist listens to me as I listen to my body.
What you are doing with aquatic aerobics is good for building your core.

Have a pain free day!
