I am probably the worst patient a Doctor could have. Cancelling appointments, only going through
with a portion of the required testing, rarely filling a prescription given,
next to no follow up. I am not proud of
it, I just do not like admitting a problem.
Recently a dull nagging shoulder pain seemed to have persisted for about
a month. My wife booked an appointment
with a sports therapist that she had visited and had very good success. I had
my doubts, but following the meeting he tested my strength in various
positions, and with a bit of pressure in just the right place the shoulder
injury subsided.
Now I am pretty sceptical about a fix that could be as simple as a two
minute meeting, but the pain is gone. According to his explanation, two vertebrae
in my neck were out which had pulled my upper rib out of place putting pressure
into the shoulder. He replaced all said bones into the proper slots, and so far
it has made an entire difference. I have
never had results this instant with any consultation with a chiropractor, acupuncture,
or otherwise. It reiterated the
importance of proper maintenance of our bodies in the care of people that know
something about it.
With that being said, I am hopeful that the fix will allow for ramped up
practice and training coming in light of the upcoming News Years ceremony.
