Abstract
Mild traumatic brain injury has been shown to result in decreased cerebral blood flow. Water-based exercise has recently been shown to increase cerebral blood flow when compared to land-based exercise. It seems reasonable that the initial introduction of water-based exercise may improve the recovery and return to activity of patients who have sustained a concussion.
