Aquatic Therapy Modalities

Aquatic Bodywork is grounded in the holistic principle that the body, the mind, and the spirit are intertwined.

The professionally trained practitioner harnesses the remedial properties of warm water to induce relaxation and healing by carrying out a set of mindful and gentle movements, stretches, and massage.

Aquatic Bodywork has many applications; among which are the enhancement of physical and emotional rehabilitation, supporting prevention and maintenance, as well as providing rejuvenation and leisure in spa settings.

The Australian Institute of Aquatic Bodywork offers training encompassing internationally recognised aquatic bodywork modalities.
