The benefits of swimming in spine diseases are so significant that doctors recommend it to patients along with physical therapy. One of the reasons for this efficiency is the property of water to reduce the weight of immersed bodies. So, if a person weighs 70 kg, then in the water he will lighten up to 3 kg – this is close to weightlessness! The complexity of spine diseases is that the spine is constantly under weight. Your back can only rest during sleep, and even more during swimming.
If you have a pectoral curvature of the spine, or you slouch, it will be useful for you to swim on the abdomen. In this position, the spine stretched back and corrected posture. If the pectoral curvature flattened, swimming on the back is more effective.
Swimming has a complex healing effect on the body. It helps with diseases of the musculoskeletal system, respiratory system and nerves. The whole body is better supplied with oxygen and nutrients by increasing blood circulation and proper breathing. Regeneration processes speeded up, immunity strengthened, and overall health improved.
