Water immersion may inhibit renal sympathetic activity via cardiopulmonary loading in animals; leaves open relevance to human HF or hypertension.
Water immersion alters baroreflex control of renal sympathetic nerve activity via the inhibitory influence of cardiopulmonary mechanoreceptor loading, without resetting carotid baroreceptors.
Miki et al. (2009) studied this question.
