I've been doing pool therapy -- not directly for PCS but for the sciatica that came on while I was recovering. They have me in a pool with a treadmill and then are teaching me other exercises I can do independently in a community pool.
I love it!! I definitely feel better when I exercise, this is good total-body work, and there is NO impact.
I think that regular swimming might be too much exertion, but walking and doing suspended biking in the water is AMAZING.
