Why the PT?
Oct. 5th, 2007 01:00 am I never explained about the Physical therapy. My doctor has sent me to Physical Therapy to try to build up my stamina/strength. The PT is sort of weird. The guy has this theory (well, subscribes to this theory that someone in California came up with), based on these classes he's taken, about constant muscle strain, from our bodies being out of line, because of the chairs we sit in, etc. So I'm doing all these strange exercises with stretchy band and deep breathing (3 times a day) to loosen and stretch out muscles that are always in strain. The theory being that the constant strain the muscles are under, while not painful, are enough to make you tired all over. Interesting. The exercises tire me out, in weird muscles. But supposedly it will help in the long run. And it's not the kind of tired that vacuuming brings on where I feel sweaty and shaky and hurt all over. I can stand it.
