  2. IYKYK. Took a month off of running after a 7 mile trail run made my knee hurt. Finally going at it again tonight after some strength training. Wish me luck. #theforkiverse #running #physicaltherapy

  3. #3GoodThings

    PT has added core exercises to my schedule. I have a few physical issues that will hopefully be corrected/helped with them. 🤞

    Found a step converter and I'm averaging almost 4 miles each time I use the cross trainer. This made me very happy! 😀

    Sherbert, bless her, has another egg almost ready to be laid. Poor thing. 🦜 🪺

  4. Horses As Therapy
    There's some bills I don't mind paying, and for me that's the horse expenses. I mean after all, I look at what I'm spending and I could either be paying that in copays to a medical system that has shown time and time again that it has failed me (I am in rural Missouri where "we don't treat pain" has turned into "we don't treat bodies in pain for anythi

    Thanks to your support, we’ve secured $234 of $500 for Walid’s December physical therapy and transportation. Only $266 is still needed.
    Your continued help keeps Walid receiving his daily therapy. Every contribution, even small, makes a real difference in his recovery. Thank you for standing with him during these difficult times.

  12. Anyone from #Tucson #Arizona have a personal recommendation for a sports therapist?

    After looking over the MRI, the doctor suggested I work with a physical therapist for my shoulder. He gave me a long photocopied list of providers in Tucson, but given how impossible it is to trust reviews anymore, I'm asking for a direct recommendation.

    Ideally a sports therapist who works with people actively engaged in high energy sports.

    I usually hold a glass with my right hand. Since my left shoulder is frozen, drinking beer with my left hand might actually serve as physical therapy 🤔

  14. CW: Probably irrational physical therapy exercise fear

    Doing my heel slide exercises to strengthen the tendon connections at the knee, and I stg sometimes it looks like one of the screws securing the metal plate to my kneecap is going to pop through the skin of my knee. Is that even a thing? I'm probably being too paranoid. 😅

  16. If anyone wonders if physical therapy is helpful for an older person who is extremely out-of-shape and overweight, yes, yes, yes it is.

    5 weeks in I am finally able to add a treadmill and another leg strengthening machine. I’ve gone from the red band to green to blue now, which is increase in strength needed for arm and torso exercises.

    Also, today I broke a sweat exercising for first time!
    Er, in full disclosure, the AC in the therapy center had gone out at 7 am and I began at 8 am. Soooo, it definitely was on the warm side in that room. #Therapy #PhysicalTherapy #Workout #Exercise

  18. I mowed my lawn today. That doesn't sound like much but a year ago I was in a wheelchair beginning a 3 month stay in a rehab facility to learn to walk again. When I was discharged I was using a walker. At home I went from the walker to a quad cane and then a regular cane. And now in the house, where I feel safe, I'm not using a cane at all.

    So mowing my lawn felt like a big deal!

  21. I've now completed 10 rounds of radiation to shrink what was left of the tumor and this week I'm starting chemotherapy for those other areas of cancer.

    When I fell I fractured my left scapula. My left arm has been in a sling with no weight-bearing allowed. But the sling came off today. In therapy I switched from a little hemi walker held in my right hand to a normal walker and my walking immediately felt better!. So that's good!

  22. So the last couple of months have been, um, interesting. Here's a quick summary.

    On May 5th I fell and couldn't get up. I called 911 and the EMTs took me me to the ER where an MRI showed a tumor on my spine that was compressing nerves. It also showed other spots of cancer elsewhere on my spine and chest wall. A neurosurgeon removed most of tumor. I was discharged to a rehab facility.

    The cancer diagnosis was multiple myeloma.

  23. It was wonderful to catch up with Gammon Earhart and hear about her latest research projects in this new podcast episode! Gammon and her collaborators are using innovative approaches like self-generated rhythmic cues (singing), mobile applications, and mindfulness to improve aspects of gait and physical activity in people with Parkinson's disease.

  25. I lucked out with #LittleBit & #SissyCat. They are two sociable #Cats that need lots of love, touches, pets and play. They demand it. They never grew out of the kitten play phase.

    This has helped my #PhysicalTherapy, esp my upper body range of motion as it deals with my spasticity and #parkinsons related body movements.

    They are also used to my twitches, movements and tremors.

    They're pretty much always within arm's reach needing a touch, a spring thrown or a feather waved.

  26. Since my truck broke down a few weeks ago, I've been riding my bike for 100% of local trips, about 100 miles per week.
    Overall I'm very pleased with how my fitness for riding is improving, but there is one problem: my shoulders are killing me! It's not like the muscle soreness I got in my legs when I first increased my riding, it's been getting worse not better over time. I don't have any general loss of range of motion, but it feels hot and tingly all the time and I get stabbing pain at random times when I move my arms.
    Someone I know suggested finding a physical therapist who understands cycling to advise me on riding posture and exercises I could do, and another person suggested getting a professional bike fitting, and another suggested I just need to raise my handlebars to get weight off my arms. Has anyone here dealt with this issue? What helped you?
