Aquatic Therapy by the Map
Aquatic therapy through statistics
Each Map of the Day takes one public dataset, such as Medicare claims, CDC data or research registries, and maps it state by state or country by country. Every map has its sources, a full data table you can search and download, a plain-language note about what the data covers, and the caveats that matter.
New maps are added regularly.
About this data. Every map uses public data from an official source, such as the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the CDC or ClinicalTrials.gov, with a link to the exact dataset. Each map says what its data leaves out. Numbers show patterns, not quality of care or need. The Aquatic Therapy Foundation compiles these maps for public education; source data can be revised, so check the linked source before relying on a figure. Spot an error?

How we make these maps
- Public, official data only, in English, with a link to the exact dataset and the date we downloaded it.
- Rates instead of raw counts where size would distort the picture, with raw counts one click away.
- A full data table and CSV download on every map, plus the caveats that matter.
- Colorblind-safe color scales, keyboard access and a table for every map.
- We don’t infer quality, need or wrongdoing from these numbers.
