• THE START OF SOMETHING NEW

  My first camera dive My mobility was not improving with my walking and swimming. My weak left leg was in constant pain, radiating from my left buttock down to the outside of my left calf muscle. I was in pain even when I was lying in bed, doing nothing. Deep tissue massages gave some very…

• ENDLESS DIVING
