Benefits of Aquafitness

	How beneficial is an aquatic exercise program in the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis?
	I think it can be a great value. Water provides excellent non-weight bearing exercise with some natural resistance. It also provides good cardiovascular exercise as well. Keeping the muscles in tone and the joints moving is the way to go.
