I had several sessions in one at Pambula and bought one big enough for two people. I have been using it every day since. I am off a walking stick and have a range of movement I haven’t had in ten years. I have lumbar and hip problems. Saw my Doctor today who is so impressed she is going to try it herself.
I am not saying this is a miracle cure for everyone. What I am saying is it might help.
I think it’s also pretty common knowledge amongst players and coaches that just about everyone carries some sort of niggle or injury towards the latter end of the season.
