Abstract

The research aims to identify the effectiveness of using aqua on the level of some physiological variables and the level of bone density in elderly people with osteoporosis. The researcher used the experimental method using an experimental design for two groups, one experimental and the other control, with pre- and post-measurements, in order to suit the research application and its procedures. Conclusions
1- There are statistically significant differences between the averages of pre- and post-measurements in the level of bone density among people with osteoporosis.
2- There are statistically significant differences between the averages of pre- and post-measurements in the level of some physiological variables (calcium - potassium - sodium - phosphorus - magnesium) among people with osteoporosis.
3- The effectiveness of the proposed water program in improving the level of bone density and some physiological variables in people with osteoporosis.
