I did my first day of physical therapy for my neck injury and the therapist guy said that now that I'm a patient there, they can help me with my MS crap along with the neck injury stuff.

Apparently I have bad posture and they're going to help me with that.

Today he showed me some exercises, and had me lay on a table with electrode-like thingies on the back of my neck while laying on some really wonderful hot pads while the electrode thingies made my neck twitch. (felt kinda good actually) The heat was really nice, even tho my left hand got a bit more numb from it, it was freezing in their office (we've got record cold temperatures right now) so the heat packs were really really nice. I think that was the best part of the whole session was that moist heat and the electrode thingies.

Then he stretched my neck a bit to help loosen muscles that are causing me problems in nerve roots and stuff. (wow, all sorts of technical crap)

He was saying that he didnt think I had slipped a disc in my cervical vertebrae, but that it is obvious that there's a spot on my neck where I might have pinched a nerve root. He could feel where it was and from the look on my face when he touched it that it was the sore spot.

He thought the physical therapy should help me a lot, at least on the neck pain from when I hurt my neck, and my back pain that I've had for the past several years.

I told him I had been walking on a treadmill up till when I hurt my neck, and he told me to get back into doing that. I think I'll do that tomorrow. (too cold and icy to drive down there today)

The PT was nice, and I go back wednesday. Too bad it'll be with a different person, I liked the guy who did the PT stuff today.
