The 8-week hydrotherapy training program was just assigned for the intervention group. The occupational performance and physical fitness tests, Health related Quality of Life (HRQOL) questionnaire and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) were measured for both groups before and after intervention. data were analyzed through SPSS 16. Results: Totally 15 policemen with mean age of 36.7 ± 7.7 years participated in the intervention group and 15 policemen with mean age of 35.2 ± 7.8 years were assessed in the control group .After intervention the flexibility rate, muscle strength, pain intensity and HRQOL were improved significantly in intervention group (P < .05). However, no significant change was observed in control group (P > .05).
