Q. Is dancing good for arthritis? I love dancing. My mom says me to go for exercise like cycling and running. But I am having a good health and I do not feel that my dancing thus does any harm to me. Mom is having arthritis and she feels that I may also have it in future and she compels me to go for exercise for good health. Is dancing good for arthritis?

A. THE ODDS THAT PEOPLE GET THIS PROBLEM IS GREAT,THATS WHAT YOUR MOTHER IS SAYING TO YOU,IF YOU STAY FIT,AND NOT OVERWORK YOUR JOINTS,YOU WILL HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF NOT GETTING ARTHRITIS,,,arthritis is a degenerative disease, that means it is caused by the wear and tear that you but on a joint,OSTEOARTHRITIC changes accur because of the thinning and eventual disappearence of the cartilage which surround the ends of bone,when this wears out,pain results because of--bare bone-moving against each other........mrfoot56

Q. My son displays behavior such as hooting, screeching, flapping arms, "chicken" dancing, rocking... Hi members, please help me to choose the right way. My son displays behavior such as hooting, screeching, flapping arms, "chicken" dancing, rocking, bouncing, jumping, limited repetitive play skills, low self esteem, difficulty commencing and occasionally sustaining adult directed tasks, difficulty maintaining relationships with adults and peers, he becomes easily frustrated and will become physically and verbally aggressive, can overreact to being touched, easily distracted by noise, short attention span, likes routine and finds it difficult to change task, difficulty listening, and difficulty following verbal instructions. He is like this at home and school. I have been told by the local NHS group that he is not autistic because of his parent’s separation and divorce in his early life and he does not present these behaviors as a "pervasive feature". Instead they suggest he needs a hearing check and he has "neuro developmental immaturities". What is your opinion? Should I get a second opinion?

A. if you ask me - they could be right. anyway i would be careful from over-the-net-diagnosis. their specialist saw the child and examined his behavior, he probably know what he is doing. and even if you are not sure- get a second opinion. can't hurt can it?

Q. Will dancing help to loose my body weight? Hi guys, I am planning to reduce my body weight. Will dancing help to loose my body weight?

A. no doubt!
dancing is a great aerobic exercise. it works on so many groups of muscles and on the cardiopulmonary system. and it has another great virtue- it is a sport you enjoy and it's easy to get in a routine of exercises when you go dancing in a group.
