Water Aerobics Reduces Sick Leave for Pregnant Women (press release)

A recent study in the Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic, & Neonatal Nursing looked at 390 healthy pregnant women to find that water aerobics, as compared to land-based exercise, reduced pregnancy-related lower back pain by 50% and sick leave by 100%. This relief in lower back pain can lead to better productivity at work and in daily life activities.

This research also suggests that aquatic exercise has preferred benefits because the environment lessens the strain and resistance on the muscles of the lower back. The study also looked at the effect of exercise – water-based or land-based on pregnant women with pelvic pain and found little effect on either.
