CMT sisters....

I finally got to show my Thermapool to a dear friend Estela this weekend!!!  She also has Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disorder and now works for the HNF like me so we share a lot in common.  She was so excited to finally get to try my indoor therapy pool and reap the benefits!!  Estela uses AFO's to walk and has weakness in her arms and legs due to CMT so getting in 92 degree water with NO leg braces, up walking around in an indoor pool could only feel amazing....She instantly stated how warm the water was and how free she felt.  I let her enjoy the pool and get used to the size and depth of the water before we started our workouts!! This was so fun for me to train Estela because I know how much she loves to stay fit and active despite having a chronic illness like myself!!!  She is like a soul sister to me and I am forever grateful for her friendship and inspiration!!!! We worked out together for the first time and it was awesome!!!  She said using my blue ankle...

Rick's Therma pool update

My friend Rick, who also has CMT, bought a Thermapool a few Months ago and seems to be loving the freedom of your own private therapy pool.  Some things had to be sent back and the company was very good to Rick and helped him get to where its all running smooth.  He said he feels such a difference physically and emotionally.  Stronger and more confident with less pain on a daily basis.  I concur with Rick...This indoor warm water pool keeps me the strongest I ever been!!! He had steps built for easy access to his TP1 5' deep pool!!! This was a spare room now a pool room!!!  Congrats and Good Luck Rick!!  I'm so glad I was a part of helping you feel better!!
