In Reply to: Hot Tub relief?? posted by Nique on February 06, 2000 at 12:14:21:
From what I've seen, people respond differently to immersing oneself into different temperatures. Some people get relief from taking a very hot shower. Others, like myself, find that this only aggravates it and need to cool the body down by one fashion or another. I'd suggest getting that hot tub regardless -- but then I'd only be living vicariously through you -- because they are so relaxing. :-) But before it's used by him to help abort the pain, I'd suggest, if he hasn't done so yet, making sure that he's one of the ones that DOES get relief by dunking himself in the heat and doesn't only speculate that he might.
