Those posture gadgets could be helpful. At least in some case. As far as radioactive water is concerned - this goes to show that 60 years later when new knowledge comes to light we will see the folly of some of the fads of today.

They look like they'll snap your neck in two.
And I wonder if Brother Brigham bathed in that water they're so willing to exploit to us?

People still use radon therapy for all sorts of ailments. Or try to anyway.

Radiation therapy actually works for all sorts of problems. Back in the day people used it for just about everything. Then they realized that they were giving pepple cancer just to cure their warts or acne.

There are radon mines "spas" in Montana that are open to the public. We should all go there and see if it increases our Quality X.
