"Why is aquatic exercise so beneficial for pregnant women?"

In addition to the overall benefit of exercise to your heart, lungs, muscles, and joints, water exercise has some special benefits for your pregnant body.

Cool Water helps keep your body temperature within safe limits while exercising
Buoyancy reduces joint stress and allows for a greater range of motion
Turbulence created by your body's movement through the water: massages your skin, improves circulation, and reduces tension and pain
Hydrostatic Pressure pushes against your pregnant body and: stabilizes muscles and joints, reduces or eliminates swelling (edema) in feet, ankles, and legs, reduces varicose veins
