First PT Appointment

Posted at 8:09 pm MST to Exercise

Anne Hanks does PT, not chiropractic, which is nice: slow subtle adjustments instead of the 'wham' 'crunch' you get with a chiropractor. She said she adjusted my third lumbar vertebra slightly, and adjusted my pelvis. I can tell it made a difference: my leg felt too long when I walked on it doing some shopping, and the pattern of sore spots in my hip and leg have changed.

I'm ordered to let the hip flexors have tinme to heal before I stretch them with the yoga or free weights. Maybe I'll try the treadmill tomorrow.

And I'm supposed to spend about 15 minutes a day with m feet up a wall. 45 degree angle to start. I'm going to go do that now.

I have a followup appointment next Thursday.
