As an Aquatic Bodywork Practitioner for the Wave Academy, Cheryl is specifically trained in Watsu and other aquatic therapies for veterans with PTS and other physical injuries.
WATSU® is a form of aquatic bodywork used for deep relaxation and passive aquatic therapy. It is characterized by one-on-one sessions in which a practitioner or therapist gently cradles, moves, and stretches a receiver in chest-deep warm water.
WATSU®, originally developed by Harold Dull at Health Hot Springs, California in the early 1980s, combines elements of muscle stretching, joint mobilization, massage, Shiatsu, and dance, performed in chest-deep warm water (around 35 degrees Centigrade = 95 degrees Fahrenheit). The receiver is continuously supported by a practitioner or a therapist while being back floated, rhythmically cradled, moved, stretched, and massaged.
