I was wondering if any of you ausie's or kiwi's (or anyone else for that
matter) know anything about pilates. I saw a segment on TV about it several
years ago, and have just seen the machine (?) in a catalog and was
considering if it was worth the money. I was wondering if it might be good
for rehab and strengthening for someone who, like me, who only suffers from
parathesis. For those who are wondering what the devil I am talking about,
it is an machine developed by an Australian rugby player that suffered a back
injury, that developed this system to strenghten and stretch muscles. It
reportedly is very effective, and allows efficient and low impact exercising.
I would be appreciative of any input.

read mail anymore... and has found there are many more Nancy's on the list
now!
