Popis: The aim of this study was to evaluate the main motor and functional changes before and after physical therapy of a patient with spinal cord injury caused by diving in shallow water. We analyzed previous records of a patient with spinal cord injury by diving in shallow water, who had rehabilitation at the Rehabilitation Clinical of Oeste Paulista, between 2008 and 2011, attending two one-hour-sessions a week. The patient improved muscle strength as consequence of the rehabilitation program. The treatment also helped the patient improve functionality observing the development while being transferred, in other words, during position changes, between 2008 and 2011. It is understood that patients with spinal cord injury show muscle strength and functional pattern improvement when undergoing physical therapy.
