  • More Pain Relief from Tommie Copper

    Ever since the Tommie Copper infomercial hit the air, I’ve been crossing paths with others who are experiencing aches, pains, and injuries and finding relief from Tommie Copper products. I always love hearing those stories of pain relief because I remember all too well my own journey with a painful recovery from ACL surgery.

    Recently, my barefooting buddy and Tumble Turn Coach, Bob Kraft shared his own journey of pain relief using Tommie Copper products:

     I bought my FIRST Tommy Copper Sleeve after I injured my knee during an early 2013 barefoot waterski run. I could barely walk. No surgery required but 12 weeks of physical therapy was recommended.  After two weeks of therapy my knee was a better but I still wasn’t back on the water for fear of re-injuring the knee again. My friend Karen suggested Tommie Copper so I ordered it online and got it in no time. I swear I could feel a difference almost immediately but I figured once I worked out the pain would return. To my surprise, I still had discomfort but I wouldn’t call it pain. The sleeve gave me the confidence and comfort to workout AND get back on the water. Within 2 weeks I shed the sleeve and now I wear it only on occasion.  On one of my final barefoot runs of last season, I got a little careless and caught my arm in the rope handle during a fall. I thought I might lose my arm from the elbow down – fortunately I was told NO serious damage. BUT it hurt like H#!! just to hold a drink in my hand (we can’t have THAT!).  So I immediately ordered a Tommie Copper Elbow sleeve. I have had virtually no problems this off-season and I can’t wait to get back on the water this Spring! Thank you Tommie Copper!!

  • More Praise for Tommie Copper

    Early this morning, while flipping through the cable channels at a hotel, I came across the Tommie Copper segment and thought back to the first time I came across the company in the early spring:

    Discovering Tommie Copper

    To have my knee pain disappear completely after all those weeks of taping my knee over in therapy– priceless!

    I had another opportunity to experience the miracle of these copper sleeves over the summer.  During one of my slalom practices while barefooting, I pulled a muscle in my forearm.  I had trouble gripping the handle for three weeks and the pain just would not go away.  I skied the Regionals and the Nationals and kept icing the same spot.

    It was time to test out a Tommie Copper arm sleeve to see if I could get the same relief I received from their knee sleeve.  The company sent me an arm sleeve to try.

    Sure enough, within 48 hours of wearing the copper-infused compression sleeve, the pain was cut in half.  After two weeks of wearing it, the pain had disappeared completely.  So now that I’ve experienced two of their products and gained relief with both, I’m even more of a fan of this company.  I’ve been recommending the products to everyone I know who has experienced pain of any kind.

    Next week, I’ll be heading out to the World Barefoot Center for a week of barefooting.  As always, by the third day, my body will start screaming.  I think if I order every single Tommie Copper product, I would be covered from neck to toe.  That should work!
