Description

In the 1900's Rocking Chair Therapy was emerging as a treatment for various ailments, and at the time considered progressive and effective. We haven't been able to locate formal research from that era, but doctors have encouraged, suggested and even prescribed rocking for a long time. Public medical informational web sites usually have a bulleted list on soothing a baby's woes, and rocking in a rocking chair is usually one of the bullets. Rocking regularly in a good rocker simply has the ability to calm the spirit, soothe a stressed body, focus the mind and all the while gently exercising even the weakest of muscles. This phenomenon turned to fact when modern research accounts began to surface throughout varying healthcare disciplines.

Oseetah Lake is an 826-acre lake with a mean depth of three feet. It is in New York State's Adirondack Park, two and a half miles south of the village of Saranac Lake on the Saranac River.
