| dc.description.abstract | Hydrotherapy appears safe and more effective than conventional physiotherapy for improving gait control, balance, and mobility in older adults with neurological impairments. Its buoyancy and resistance effects facilitate motor re-education and confidence in movement. Integrating aquatic therapy into neurorehabilitation programs may enhance outcomes and quality of life, although long-term follow-up studies are still needed. | eng |
