On Sunday, while walking my dog, I experienced a back spasm, which made walking or standing almost impossible. This had happened to me 15 years ago and I spent 2 1/2 days in the hospital in the “W” position, taking muscle relaxing and pain pills, and sitting in a $100 and hour whirlpool tub. This time my own hot tub, with its powerful jets had me back walking almost pain free the next day. My son, a chiropractor, told me to get into it as soon as I could climb in…which I did. This is only one of a number of similar stories when hot tubing has saved me pain and money.
