Ok, so that title makes sense with a little bit of back story. Years ago I caught the bug for endurance races and training was my happy place. Marathons, triathlons, paddling Outrigger canoes across the Ka iwi, I loved it! But that momentum came to a halt when I crashed my racing bike while out on a training ride. My helmet broke into 2 pieces and saved my life, but my back was by far in worse condition. I had a long recovery from a traumatic head injury, a fractured spine, and so much road rash... it was not pretty. After back surgery I had permanent nerve damage that resulted in weakness and numbness down the right side of my right knee, leg, and foot. It was a win to me considering. So fast forward 8 years, and like anything, I learned to live with chronic back pain, wobbly balance, and right leg and foot numbness where I had to be mindful of injuries that I could not feel. But aging was starting to feel like an uphill battle. That's when I found Egan's Fitness. And through Egan's I found Hawaii Optimum Performance, which is where I had my 1st experience with PEMF, like very strong medical grade PEMF. Chronic back pain vanished long enough where I was able to do strength training to improve my back health... win, win! When my coach introduced the P90+ to the gym for members to try, it quickly became evident to me how beneficial it would be to get a daily dose of PEMF in the comfort of my home. I have the P90+, the Shaken Massager, and the Goggles... yup, all in! The first 2 weeks of using the P90+ everyday happened to coincide just as my chronic back pain kicked in again. Good timing right, which nobody ever says about back pain. I spent the first week trying out the intensity Levels and figuring out what "uncomfortable" felt like to me... heated tightness in my ankles sprinkled with hot flashes and sweat, "Uncomfortable!!!" I settled on Level 10 if my pain is high, or sometimes Level 8 for workout recovery. A staff member at Egan's suggested I log each session and consistency using the P90+ is just bonus. Week 3 was a game changer. Back pain, muscle fatigue, and a shoulder strain all gone and 2 1/2 months later it hasn't returned, I feel so good!
