My PCP would like me to try Aquathereapy. I guess it is PT in 96 degree whater. It sounds great and I am excited.

I have wanted to join a healthclub to use the hot tub but it would have been too expensive.

I called the PT place and they said my insurance will cover 3 sessions a week.

I am so grateful. My PCP said this would be a great way to stretch out and maybe get some exercise. He said it may help pain.

Thanks so much. Nothing usually goes right for me so this is exciting.

Most of the time I dont step outside for days and days. This will give me a good reason to get out.
Hopefully I can start next week.

Same here. I think that's why my vitamin D is so low -- I'm getting NO sun at all! LOL. [Roll Eyes]

When I was really sick and doing physical therapy I started in the warm water up to my shoulders. It was wonderful!

I also had a great PT that would do trigger point massage after and release all my tight parts.

Enjoy! It was really great and helped me get back to regular exercise.
