Well I saw the physiotherapist today, who diagnosed a case of spine seized up, and did some work on mobilizing vertebrae and gave me a series of exercises. Funnily enough my back was just very stiff and tight when I saw her, but not painful and no clicking at all. Typical that on the day I see the physio the main symptoms are nowhere to be seen! I won’t mind that of course, so long as the exercises do the trick.
I think once it’s settled properly I’ll have to investigate something like yoga, to work on flexibility and full range of movement. I was always very loose limbed and flexible, but I’m definitely losing that (allowing it to go) as I age.
Hermaj,
I would never now have thought about acupuncture for anything other than pain relief, but of course it’s benefits are more wide ranging. Thank you for the reminder!
Back on the main topic…I fasted today. After a slightly excessive (hmm, sugar, think caramel…) and slothful weekend, it was great not to eat π
