- Supports in supine and a clinical application in a right hemiplegic patient.

- Equilibrium effects of eye deviation.

- Extremes of body shape. The long position is used to facilitate longitudinal and sagittal rotation. The wide position blocks those rotations and can be used when facilitating the transversal rotation.

- Metacentric torque effects. Their use for stabilising exercises and the facilitation of righting reactions in an able bodied person.

- Metacentric effects used in an incomplete spinal cord injury patient in order to stimulate contra-rotational trunk activity.

- Inertia patterns. Their use to stabilise the body around the longitudinal axis.

- Inhibition of movement. When a person uses peripheral fixed points, the trunk has difficulties to use its range of motion.

- Transference and conclusion. Thinking of a movement creates a loss of balance through an altered muscular activation pattern. Water enlarges balance difficulties and forces a patient to react to these difficulties.
