New understanding of PTSD and the aquatic work of members Diane Tegtmeier and Inika Spence, indicate the potential application of aquatic therapy in healing trauma. This Group has been created to explore and promote that.

- Hi Garlena, I was very excited to see your post about doing a doctoral dissertation on aquatics and mental health. I have completed a Masters in adult education practices and language aquisition. I am considering continuing on for a PhD and would love to research the effects of aquatic massage on learning in adults. I am also working with my friend Adrianne to design research on the effects of aquatic massage on persons with PTSD. As of now, we are just in the phase of making contacts with people and learning how to conduct the research. If you have any suggestions, they would be much appreciated.
