Here's a link to show you adult versions of a hula hoop.  The one I'm looking at to buy is the Acu Hoop.  It comes in sections and snaps together so you can even take it with you when you travel.  I'll probably get the one that weighs 3 lbs. although they also offer 4 and 5 lb. models.  We're going to FL and also Myrtle Beach in May.  Couldn't you just see me "hooping" on the beach.   :rofl;   It wouldn't be a pretty sight, trust me!

Rose, It's great that you're feeling so much better.  I'm surprised that insurance wouldn't cover your laser treatment since it was for an injury.  Did they tell you why it wasn't covered?

I'm in the UK we don't have the same system as the US so we don't have insurance (unless you;re rich enough to have private health cover).  The NHS would offer physiotherapy but there was a huge waiting list and then they only offered manipulation - not laser - and only a limited number of sessions, so I decided to pay privately and it seems to be paying off.

I think I looked into it, but couldn't find any options locally.  Maybe I should be willing to drive if it is really going to help.  I'm happy to hear that it worked for you.  :cuddle;
