"At Chelsea Football Club we take rehabilitation very seriously. We are constantly looking for people and modalities that will improve our methods as we aspire to be one of the most effective units in the world. We appreciate the value of water in all aspects of rehabilitation as well as adding this form of therapy to fit athletes with their strength and conditioning programmme. However training in this area has required specific knowledge and expertise in order to take us to a higher level. We searched worldwide and finallly concluded that Garry Killgore was the specialist that would provide us with the expertise that we needed to assist in this specialist area of aquatic therapy. Garry Killgore provided intensive training for our department over 3 days and he has been an inspiration. His energy in teaching, experience and undoubted knowledge has markedly improved the way our club approaches rehab strength and conditioning in the water. We believe he is true world expert in his field".

"While working with the England World Cup Rugby Team in 2007, I was introduced to the Zero Gravity suits and shoes. It took one session in the pool to immediately realize how practical and appropriate this set-up would be for both post-injury and performance training. The ability to off load an athlete in the water is critical for my programs; and the AQX equipment creates an opportunity to train athletes that is limited only be one's creativity. I have had some of the best athletes in the world use this equipment and I will continue to do so for a long time!"

“At Manchester United the pool facilities are utilised with all age groups using various forms of conditioning methods to achieve our goals. Training is undertaken in the pool with injured players throughout their rehabilitation as well as with fit players for additional cardiovascular training, power development and recovery/regeneration training. The addition of the Zero G to our programme has contributed to all components, assisting players’ running gait during cardiovascular and recovery work as well as providing additional buoyancy during some of the power work. There is extra comfort associated with the suits that the players respond positively to which has contributed to an enhanced quality of training and sensation of well-being”.

"I've now spent 7 of the last 10 days in the water with the AQx shoes. They definitely add more resistance and they make you run with proper form. When doing striding drills, they more than double the effect on my hamstrings/glutes. The few days I've run on land, I feel lighter, stronger and faster. I got dad (Jim Ryun) in the AQx shoes. When I asked him if he had tried them, he said, ‘They are incredible.’ He thinks the shoes are fantastic and loves the added resistance they provide.”

"Just a brief note to thank you and staff for offering these classes. My husband and I took the class last term and had a really good experience with the three trainers. We are doing a mini version of it now on our own for 30 minutes three times a week and getting good results. I have lost 8-10 pounds since I started the class and in general feel much more energized."

“Two World records in three weeks! On September 10 Lornah was injured and between the 10th and the 16th she only did water running with AQx shoes on her feet, no running at all. On the 17th she broke the WR on the 10 Mile! Thanks and regards.”

“As an older runner, I've begun cross-training more than when I was in my 20's or 30's and the AQx Aquatic Training Shoes allow for the closest thing to ‘Real Running.’ Coming back from injury they allow you to utilize water recovery in a whole new way; different from just swimming or using a water belt. Run steady with AQx!”

”All health care and strength & conditioning professionals know that the key to an effective training program is variety. The AQx shoes provide endless possibilities for training which helps to prevent athletes from hitting a plateau. At the physical therapy clinic I work at we offer aquatic therapy in a unique pool environment with an underwater treadmill. Previously, I performed workouts bare foot on the treadmill. After getting the shoes I couldn’t believe how much more support I had as well as how much their design increased the intensity and quality of my workout. People who train with the AQx shoes will be pleasantly surprised and immediately see the powerful results that only they can provide. I will no longer workout myself or other athletes in the pool without the AQx Aquatic Training Shoe.”

"I want to thank you for introducing me to the AQx Aquatic Training Shoe. The shoes have allowed my athletes to get in quality water running workouts while recovering from their injuries. Unlike other water training devices, the AQx Aquatic Training Shoe has helped my athletes maintain a high level of fitness while using the pool for both training and recovery purposes. The AQx Aquatic Training Shoe is an athlete's best option when doing pool workouts!"
