Doctors and physical therapists agree this low impact sport is easy on the joints and back and can be the key to faster recovery for debilitating ailments and injuries.</p>  <p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal">Water provides buoyancy and support for the body. When you’re neck-deep in water, you’re only supporting 10% of your actual body weight but you can exercise at eight times the resistance. Water pressure helps control swelling that often accompanies injury as well. You can even increase your physical fitness while you recuperate and avoid prolonged physical therapy.</p>  <p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal">Water exercise is also an excellent weight loss tool. A person’s whole body changes when they swim. They become healthier with regular water-based exercise. People who want to get fit and stay fit find they make greater progress in a pool than on land. But for many people the thought of owning a pool or simply doing water based exercise conjures a very different image; pool maintenance, expense, mammoth construction efforts, limited space, driving to the gym, gym fees, limited gym hours, heavy chlorine, locker rooms, and accessibility problems. At what point do the benefits outweigh the cost and hassle?</p>   <p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><strong>Planning For An Endless Pool®</strong></p>  <p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal">The Endless Pool® Swimming Machine, number one in the industry, is easy to install and an affordable way to make swimming and water exercise part of your daily routine.
