LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1. Verbally describe an appropriate aquatic handling technique under 1-2 of the following therapeutic scenarios: non-weight-bearing, hydrophobic, asymmetric center of buoyancy, fragile skin, hypersensitivity to touch, non-verbal communication, poor head and trunk righting skills, aspiration risk

2. Verbally describe 1-2 aquatic therapy tasks which capitalize on hydrodynamic and thermal properties of water

3. Understand how to alter movement difficulty by manipulating 2-3 of the following: buoyancy, velocity, streamlining, levers, frontal surface area, and momentum

4. Identify 3-4 therapeutic movements, tasks, or exercises using fundamental hydrodynamic and thermal principles

5. Recite 8-10 general precautions and contraindications to aquatic therapy

6. Visually identify 8-10 types of aquatic therapy equipment and use that equipment appropriately in at least 1 situation in water

7. Visualy identify 4-5 aquatic specialty techniques (such as Watsu®) and where to obtain additional information on these techniques
