Q: Has anyone out there used a mini Trampoline to help with exercise recovery?

Hi PJ,

First off I just wanted to say I loved your share post for today. It was right on the money.

 Now to my question, I'm going into my 6 wk after surgery, and the doctor has given me the ok to try different kinds of exercises to help with my recovery. I've used the mini Trampoline many times in the past for other health issues, like back problems, it is very gentle on your joints, and it also help with digestion problems, which is a big problem with my Diabetes. But I was wondering if anyone out there had used it, in their recovery routine after a double mastectomy?? If anyone has any knowledge on this subject please reply.

Thank you, StepahedaWink

Thanks, Stepaheda. Whatver anyone says here, you should check with your surgeon before you get on that trampoline, OK? - PJH
