Comparison in three dimensional gait kinematics between young and older adults on land and in shallow water

Comparison in three dimensional gait kinematics between young and older adults on land and in shallow water

Highlights • Three-dimensional kinematics of walking on land and in shallow water were studied. • Healthy people, whether young or older, walked differently in water. • Ageing did not significantly affect how people walk in shallow water. • Aquatic rehabilitation professionals need to be aware of th...
