- This is a slow go up here - perhaps it's the cold weather? I will forward the information to The Waters, where I recieved my training. I am recipient number 40 that has taken the course.
Will your arthritis CEC be available on line? That one would be great as well.
DDD - Degenerative Disc Disease is a big one here right now. As therapists, we are aware that this is a natural process to some degree. Many folk in their 40's, 50's + have accepted this as their story. All things back would be wonderful to advertise as having specific training in.

Lee Baskin said… - Hi Mary,
I attended one of your Aquatic Safety classes and am looking for an answer to a question. How many days after a person has had diarreaha should they wait to return to the pool? I searched the CDC website and I could not find a specific time frame.
Thank you,
Lee Baskin

- I have not done poster sessions at NIH....but I have done lots of presentations...
You have opportunity to use the latest in digital programming and that is a plus.
I'm sure it will turn out well. Do you know who else is doing poster sessions? Might be fun to try to find out?
I think the fact that you will be on hand to answer questions is a great big plus....

I intend to bring the Watsu 1 DVD and show the 'Intro' as a continuous loop. The idea to 'bookmark' the DVD so I know where to skip to to show actual live shoulder girdle stretches is a great one, thanks. Kinko'c will help me with the digital pics...and as soon as I have a visual example I can forward I will. Have you everdone anything like this? Just curioius! With lessings and appreciation,
Keo

New understanding of PTSD and the aquatic work of members Diane Tegtmeier and Inika Spence, indicate the potential application of aquatic therapy in healing trauma. This Group has been created to explore and promote that.
This group could explore, discuss and learn from each other the many benefits of working in warm water with the approach that humans have potential to recognize the potential for movement and alignment in the physical, emotional and energetic body.
Were you able to attend Carolyn?
