Hot tubs useful?
She is 56, at home and I am 58, still working, waiting for my freshmen son to graduate high school. My health is generally good been losing weight (needed too) I work at keeping the sugar and cholesterol down but recently I have developed stiffness in my knees. No exactly pain mind you though occasionally at night they may be a bit achy. If I sit for any length of time I have a hard time getting up. Talk about 'weak in the knees'. Yeah I know its all about aging.
My strategy is to continue to lose weight for sure I know that will help And continue to take my dog for long walks - it was 0 here on Monday/Tuesday so a little harder in winter.
The tile setter who did my bathroom a few years back with bad knees told me his hot tub provided relief. A colleague from a High School Parent group with a hip replacement told me the same.
Anyone care to chime in?
Many thanks
Ray
