How often should I swim?

Looking to go swimming whenever possible, bought fins to train in, just general fitness I need and hoping this relaxes the joints and muscles.

I normally swim in warm water if I try. how many times a week / month should I aim for?

I'm not a personal trainer but, once a week springs to mind?
Depends on:
Cost ?
How will it affect any other training?
Accessibility ?

You should build a therapy plan with a trainer.
