I am 79 yrs old . Have several damaged discs-lower back. Six years ago was taken in ambulance to emergency care ( two days in a row, because I could not get out of an office type chair. Diagnosis "you have a bad back" take these drugs and check back.

Did not like those instructions. Went online to Mayo and found lower back exercises. Decided to do them daily in my hot tube at 102 degs. very early morning (regardless of outside temps)
After immersion and exercises I experience NO lower back issues until I get out of bed next morning.

Changed my life immeasurably. If I go more than two days without the Hot Tub therapy, symptoms return with growing intensity each day.

Hope this helps someone else



Now play golf 5 or 6 days a week (no pain or stiffness ) No Drugs, Chiro, Massage, Acupuncture--------
