I think I like needles with a spark...
Yesterday, I experienced acupuncture for the first time. I should explain. Shortly after starting school, I began to notice pain when I lifted my book bag. I just figured it was muscle pain and I would just take it easy. Well, here we are 5 months later and I can barely lift my arm to shoulder level. I have pain any time I pick up anything heavier than 5 pounds. DH keeps telling me that I have a rotator cuff tear. I’m not about to take my shoulder to a surgeon. Now I don’t really believe in chiropractors but I do know one who is on the list that the Workers’ Compensation courts use for Independent Medical examiners. So anyway I head over there today, and after 30 minutes, 20 of it with needles attached to electricity, ribs and neck adjusted and I’m out of pain and able to put my arm over my head, albeit slowly. Still can’t lift anything heavier than 5 pounds without pain but I can move again.
