About this episode
Can playing adult recreational tennis help your health? We really appreciate Nikki discussing how adult recreational tennis was beneficial for her health, and she even believes it helped save her life. Nikki is a 4.0 who loves to play! She normally plays on 5-6 teams per season. When she was 29 she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Over the next few years she was diagnosed with several other autoimmune disorders such as Lupus, Sjogren’s Syndrome and Hashimoto’s thyroid, and she was diagnosed with Lyme disease. Even when she is pain she says she always feels better after she plays and it helps her both physically and mentally. If you have similar health issues and would like to talk with someone who has been through a similar situation you can contact Nikki at her email address (catloverd@att.net). We love how grateful she is to be able to play, and it also made us realize that you never really know what someone is going through on the other side of the court.
