Niki


Goals:

  • manage pain to increase the quality of life



Therapy:

            bioelectric whirlpool therapy-                      

                     (used for relaxation & pain management)

           UWT (underwater treadmill)


Niki's Outcome:

Niki was coming in three days each week to get her whirlpool treatments.  She was in pain due to her herniated disks, but we were able to manage some of that pain to give her more comfortable and stronger days through the use of our bioelectric whirlpool sessions with her.  Sadly, on July 31, 2006, Niki crossed over rainbow bridge; it was discovered that she had an abdominal tumor.
