[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 672579, member: 19522"] That is what I ended up doing, Copa. Here, I had to go to my regular Dr. first to identify the problem, and he had to [I]prescribe[/I] physiotherapy in order for insurance to cover it. It may be different where you are, depending on your coverage. My PCP is trained in sports medicine, so I trust him to not "medically" manage, but work with the body. Health care systems are different everywhere. What attributed to my injury was pushing myself to the limits, exercising my major muscles, paddling, jogging using body weight exercises, push ups, crunches, etc. to build strength. The physiotherapist explained to me the importance of working the small muscle groups, because they support the larger ones. If we do not work them together, the small muscles stop working, yet they support the larger muscles. I neglected stretching, which as a dancer, you know is huge. A tight muscle is a weak muscle. Weeds. Injury. These are all weeds we can fill our "pukas" with. For me, when life becomes heavy, I can shut down and stop moving. I need to stop this, and find my strength. Movement helps with the heaviness, the depression. Movement lifts the spirits. The body has an amazing capacity for healing. I have not been good, and going walking, so I will start up again. It is very healthy, and helps clear my mind. I need to seek a diet that stops inflammation, this leads to swelling, and makes joints ache. I am sure you will find a remedy, Copa. But do not tarry. Your body is talking to you, telling you it needs something. You will find the answers. Next is to apply the remedy. Me too. Apply the remedy. A moving body, keeps moving. I want to keep moving as long as I possibly can. leafy [/QUOTE]
