Merav Hadar-Frumer - Hydrotherapy

This course was extremely revealing for me.  It made a lot of things clear to me: a framework for my clinical thinking in the water,   the connection between physiotherapy in the water and improving swimming style (or passive techniques)

During the course I learned a lot and I gained more confidence in the use of Halliwick.  I received new tools that will improve and enrich my treatments.

I learned that "where" and "why" you offer support is extremely important when working in the water

The course gave me a lot of ideas for work in and out of the water

This course organized my thinking.  I feel that now, more than ever, I can plan treatments according to functional treatment goals and get the most out of therapy sessions.  Thank you!
