Medical Update

I switched back to my old physical therapist this week. I feel better today than I have in weeks. Stacy showed me how to check and see if my pelvis is in alignment. If not, she showed me how to put it back in alignment myself. Why didn't the old therapist show me this trick weeks ago?

Stacy thinks all my problems may be caused by a weak transverse abdominis muscle. Well, after having 4 kids and 2 of them being twins, I am not surprised. So she is helping me isolate that muscle (because I couldn't even find it when I first started) and strengthen it.

I don't want to get my hopes up, but I think I am on my way to recovery. Hopefully all it took was the right physical therapist.

I'm so happy that you're feeling better and the therapist was able to help you to be able to help yourself.
