Jacuzzis?
« on: January 06, 2020, 02:14:44 AM »
Did people use jacuzzis during their recovery?  Dr. Paley advised against their use, but some of the PTs told me patients use them.  Seems like it'd be very relaxing given that heat therapy is often helpful during lengthening.

Me and a handful of Paley patients got in jacuzzis and they were amazing for heat therapy - helped with the pain and helped as a pre - stretch activity.

We only got into the jacuzzi until well after our surgery wounds were fully healed due to the risk of infection - probably around a month and half after the operation.
