Hi I thought I read somewhere that you take Maia to a friends house with a hot tub, well my sis in law just got one so we started to take Butchie my question is is there anything particular that you do or do you just relax and stretch? thanks in advance

katie just stretches (you should see the bent elbow just stretching out!), relaxes a bit, dips her shoulders in and gets little massages on various tight spots. She loves it and seems to get some discomfort relief.

Re: ? for Francine
hi stacy - maia wears a floatie that keeps her way down in the water - up to her chin.... (www.swimways.com - SwimR Trainer) so that her shoulder is submersed and then we do "therapy" which means getting her arm involved in any fun way possible. There was a great article in last year's Outreach (awareness) about things to do in the water... did you get a copy? If not - contact Nancy Birk at nancy@ubpn.org and she'll send you one. There were a lot of great ideas there.
(ps - it is a swim spa - so there is a lot of length and depth)
