Very positive read here on sports.yahoo.com, on how swimming is beneficial to people with multiple sclerosis, because 1) it is social no matter medical condition, 2) it is effective but gentle strength training, 3) it relaxes and brings down stress level, 4) it is cooling even when training on hot days (and has the added benefit of lifeguards), and 5) allows balance training while supporting ones body.
