Just saw Lucy's mum after 10 days of Inclined... - Inclined Bed Therapy

Just saw Lucy's mum after 10 days of Inclined Bed Therapy running a short distance. Lucy commented that her mum can't run and indeed 10 days ago she was struggling to walk upright, stooped position, painful hip, swollen knee and limps with the pain. Her posture is normally bent forward. She frequently collapsed when her legs gave way. She also has osteoporosis and arthritis.

Her problems developed after being hit by a motorcycle age 13 and for all of these years she has been in pain, which she added was worsening with age. She has had surgery on her knee to remove cartilage but this did not stop the pain or swelling.

After 10 days of IBT:

Her swollen knee is normal now and she has no pain for the first time since the accident. Her hip is no longer painful. and she is comfortable standing upright. She still limps but added it's just a habit that's going to take a while to get out of. On rising from her flat bed, she was aching and it took an hour to get herself mobile. Now she wakes up and is good to go. She is writing everything down that changes. Her posture is now upright, although I did notice her going into the stooped position but she automatically stood upright again. Absolutely amazing to see these phenomenal changes at first hand.
