Physiotherapist Alex Lee had a 64-year-old patient with knee arthritis. She experienced difficulty walking for more than 10 minutes at a time because of pain. Her stiff knee joints and weak leg muscles made her afraid of falling.
Approximately six weeks after her first hydrotherapy treatment, she was able to walk for more than 30 minutes without having to stop. Her pain decreased dramatically, and she was stronger and more confident on her feet. It was the first time in years that she reported having felt as if her body was working with her rather than against her.
