It's 8 weeks since I had the surgery to fix that fractured and wrongly-healed toe.  I dutifully spent much of the first two weeks lounging on my couch with my foot elevated.  The next few weeks were spent hobbling around in a Walker Boot.

I had been sternly warned that it would be more than 8 weeks before I should consider getting back to dance  but surprise surprise ! At the 6 week check up I had healed so well  I was given the all-clear to workout as tolerated. I credit my pain-free and rapid healing to the specialized bone formula and the epigenetic supplement that is part of my daily nutritional program.

Way back in 2011 when I was discharged from hospital 3 days after spinal fusion surgery, the physiotherapist advised me to buy a set of Activator Walking Poles and start a program of Urban Poling (Nordic Walking) to build stamina and upper body strength. After  5 months of excruciating pain causing inactivity, muscle weakness, joint stiffness and weight gain, I had little energy, my aerobic capacity was limited and my posture poor. The Activator Poles changed that fast.
