    Hi Wonky

    Thanks for that info. I have been in London all day out with a friend but when I arrived home my hubby mentioned this programme as he had been listing to the radio in the car but did not get all the necessary details before he arrived back at work again.

    I have just listened to it and it was most interesting so many thanks again.

    Luv

    Hi, I've just listened to it on the computer, its quite interesting, and concentrates more on RA, but a lot of the treatments, like relaxation, are things that would be of use to anyone in pain or stress. Its teaching self help techniques. Professor Scott, from the Norfolk & Norwich, gives a talk about RA and I go the N&N and was under his team, but I've never seen him for treatment, although he did give a talk at a group I went to once. Worth a listen. Love Sue

    I agree Sue, well worth a listen. I, like you have OA but it is a good listen, whatever type of arthritis you may have.
