Streeettttchhhhh.....

Physical therapy. It's a wonderful thing! I had my first appointment for my frozen shoulder/shoulder impingment syndrome. I was scared! My shoulder has already started hurting and keeping me awake at night again, even after the cortisone injections. Well, it was wonderful! I got ultrasound, massage and manual stretching. If the therapist holds the ball of my shoulder back and then moves my arm, it doesn't even hurt! Do you know how exciting that is??

So, I have 4 or 5 stretches to work on at home and will go back Thurs or Fri for more stretching. She doesn't think it's a rotator cuff injury because I still have quite a bit of strength, so that's awesome news! Hopefully, in a month, I'll be able to resume P90X!!

I'm so relieved!
