warm water therapy really is nothing more than moving around in the water.. and yes.. warm would be at least 84 degrees...( silly)...

it depends on your condition really..i did it with a rehab center and for me it was mainly walking in the water shoulder high if i could manage that.

and I floated around with one of those noodles the kids like to play with.. wonderful things actually...with that I was free to move my legs and arms without having to keep myself afloat...

It included moving my arms holding small weights.. and sometimes I had weights on my ankles too...but thats what they did for me.. and I am sure it would be different for oyu based on what you need or can do...

As long as i didn't overdo it I did feel pretty good the rest of the day after going. I tried to maintain this kind of exercise but the water at the Y was too cold for me and i can't afford a rehab center membership....but it was good while it lasted.

I hope you find relief....
