I go to physio 3 times a week right now, and on the 29 I get assessed for a rehab course. It is 2 weeks to 2 months long, and it teaches you how to treat your back nicely, as well as strengthen everything in order to get back to work. It includes gym work, walking, hiking, yoga and I 'm not sure what else. All I know is it is 4 hours a day, 5 days a week, and each day is something different.
As soon as we get back on our feet financially, I will get a new bed. (been a REALLY bad winter/spring: car broke down, dog died, hubby's knee surgery, fridge died, and now my washer died!!! ACK) Good news is hubby is back to work 3 days a week, and I am getting WCB, so my physio, pain meds, muscle relaxers and wages are being covered.
My other option is a rent to own programme. I know you pay 3 times as much, but I will be able to afford say $60 a month, and get a new bed now... instead of saving up the $1000 or more and suffering until I do come up this the $$$. I am starting to think the $2 a day is well worth it!
