Good news

[cjsmith]

My feet hurt a little less today than they did yesterday.

This might be tepid wimpy good news or it might be enormously big good news - hard to say so far. The thing that makes it significant is that this morning it felt like today was going to be a bad day, and then I went for my appointment at the Myofascial Therapy Center, and by the time I walked out it felt like today was going to be a middling-to-pretty-good day.

What did they do?

I wish I knew! She explained that "the fascia around my bones" was "tight", whereas "in most people it's around the muscles". She put her hands in a lot of various places from the hip down to the tarsals, then said "There, feel that? That's so much better!" I didn't feel it at all; I have no idea what was going on. But when I got up and walked a bit, the leg she had worked on had less foot pain.

My near-term goal (heh, as if I can have goals about this at all) is to perceive whatever it is she was talking about. Maybe some day I can even learn how to duplicate what she did.

Wow. Nifty! I think the OH has tight fascia around the bones. That's the only explanation I can think of for why he likes to be massaged right ON his spine.

Oh weird. I would think that would hurt!

So would I, but evidence points in other directions :-)
