The unit of randomization was the individual participant. The randomization was carried out using Random Allocation Software version 1.0.0. To ensure proper allocation concealment, a single individual, blinded to the group allocation, handled the enrollment and group assignment process. This individual generated the random sequence using the software and assigned participants to groups without revealing the allocation to either the participants or the researchers conducting the intervention. This procedure maintained the integrity of the randomization process, Blinding description: This study will be blinded, so the evaluators will not know which patients are in the intervention group and which are in the control group. N/A Knee Osteoarthritis. Intervention 1: Intervention group: Aquatic Therapy :Participants in the aquatic therapy group will complete an 8-week program, consisting of 2 sessions per week, held at Ardabil's Jam swimming pool. Each session will last 60 minutes, including a 10-minute warm-up, 45 minutes of water exercises like : Heel Raises: ,Mini Squats, Hip Abduction ,Hip Extension ,Hip Flexion Step-Ups Arm Movements: , and a 5-minute cool-down. Intervention 2: Control group: The control group will not receive any active intervention but continued with their usual care. No - There is not a plan to make this available Justification or reason for not sharing IPD is Ethical Considerations: The ethical review board overseeing this study recommended against the release of IPD due to concerns about potential misuse or misinterpretation of the data outside of its intended context.
