Summary

This study compared water-based rehabilitation to standard land-based exercises for people who had ACL knee surgery. Twenty participants completed six sessions over 2-3 weeks. Researchers measured walking patterns, muscle function, and knee symptoms to see if the water program offered extra benefits. The goal was to find a gentler, effective way to regain movement and strength after injury.
