Today I finished up my third set of physical therapy referrals. It was bittersweet. I am not going to miss driving into town twice a week for appointments, but I am going to miss all the great massages. Not only did they work on my knee and hip, but they would work on anything that was sore. Like once, after using a terrible pillow in a hotel, I woke up with terrible neck pain. She spent the entire time working out the pain, while her assistant worked on my hip. It was great! I've been going for almost a year now, so I am going to miss the clinic and all the great conversations I had with the therapists during my hours of treatment. They are a bunch of interesting people, especially the owner Stacy. She and I could not be more opposite in our lifestyles, so the conversations were always quite interesting.
As far as my hip, I don't think I will ever get it back to 100%. But I don't have the pain that I once had. I started jogging very slow last week and only for a few minutes, but my hip was fine. It was so great to be back on the treadmill. But I need to build up slowly.

Dad loved those massages that he got when he was a massage school. I'm glad your hip is doing better. Hopefully it will continually get better.
Oh man..no more "free" massages?! You're going to miss that!
