The water buoyancy lifts the patients, and it is used especially for patients with so far unhealed wounds from accidents or surgery of upper extremities, which are not yet allowed to fully load the extremity. Movements in the water environment are often less painful than on the land, the muscle relaxation is more efficient. The water pressure acts as elastic bandage; water resistance strengthens the muscle corset.
