Sea Kayak Champ After years of crippling pain, world surf kayak champion, Tracy Sherrington, from Aviemore, has finally found some relief – thanks to a hot tub. Tracy, who was world surf kayak champion in 2001 and 2007, has recently installed a state-of-the-art hydrotherapy tub, which has helped to ease her pain and dramatically give her increased movement. After a career involving being a skiing instructor, a white water, surf and sea kayak coach and competing in surf kayaking, Tracy became Scottish champion and world champion in the 90s. However, after a serious skiing accident in 1996, followed by a life-threatening car crash in 1999, Tracy suffered permanent spinal damage which caused her immense pain. Tracy, who worked as senior lecturer in Outdoor Education and Coaching at North Glasgow College, was advised by her chronic pain consultant, doctor and also her occupational health specialist at work to take time off to receive treatment and recover from her injuries.

“I had read about hydrotherapy really helping people with sports injuries so I wanted to get a tub with strong jets which could be adjusted to the individual areas which needed massaging. “Within weeks of the tub arriving, my osteopath was surprised at the increase in movement, and, for the first time in a long time, I can see a light beginning to flicker at the end of the tunnel.” Highland Home Centre manage r, Kim Clark, said: “Immersing yourself in a heated pool can help muscles to relax, reduce pressure in joints and, as has been the case for Tracy, ease pain. People with arthritis, muscular dystrophy and victims of accidents can enjoy long sought-after relief in the 34 degree temperatures.” But there are no hot tub parties for
Tracy, she said: “The tub is mine! Nobody else is allowed in – special invite only. It gives me amazing relief so it’s not just a fun addition to the garden – it’s my rehabilitation studio!”
