a pain

i purchased a blue roller from Central Ave Physiotherapy, in town, for my muscle stiffness around my right shoulder/rotator cuff.  It is back again and i have had 3 physio treatments this past week.    I don't like to mask pain with too much over-the-counter relaxants but I resorted to Advil liquid gel caps.  The pain was too intense.

This roller (my old one wore out from 2003) will release my tension now if i work at it twice a day, at least.
How much physio and acupuncture can i have? 

the great news is that my upper cervical chiropractor in Calgary has sure cured my neck stiffness and pain.  Even with this shoulder problem right now, previously, i would be dealing with neck pain, headaches, it would be the full-meal-deal.  Now I just have to sruggle with this shoulder;  since my boys were small, my muscle problems grew tall, and now I am in my fifties and their is no grace anymore.  work hard, sit right, keep muscles loose, stretch before/after exercise.  This is high maintenance (can anyone relate?)

I highly recommend the NUCCA doctor.  Unfortunately we do not have them in Sask. or Manitoba. 

just telling you as I have been pretty busy working on this right arm. 
take care of your body and be well!

It's so frustrating not having good health isn't it? We take it for granted. I'm glad your Calgary doctor has helped you and I sure hope your new roller helps as well!
