Think chlorine exposure can’t happen to you? Think again

Admit it, you don’t think of chlorine exposure that much, if at all. Sure when we go into the pool, your eyes burn because of the chemicals. Or when you’re cleaning your bathroom, you start coughing because of the cleaner you’re using. These are just a couple of examples of chlorine exposure and yes, we are all in danger of exposure.
Here is an example of what could happen to you:
A recent client suffers from low back pain. She regularly goes to the pool at her local gym to relieve the pain. One day, while in the pool, a hose broke and caused spill of chlorine. The client suddenly found herself immersed in chlorine, which can be very deadly. The gym was quickly evacuated and shut down. The client was pulled out of the pool and was taken to the local hospital. Because of this incident, she now suffers from pulmonary issues. The really trouble about this story is this has happened before at this particular gym chain in northeastern Pennsylvania.
