Pfrimmer Massage

May 25, 2006 12:30


I had a massage this morning. I got it because of the back pain I have been having since the car accident back in March.

The massage was, in a word- INTENSE. I liked it but it was deep muscle massage- not what I would classify as relaxing. Now I am very sore... Actually, I just have a lot of tenderness... but overall I feel looser and better. The therapist said I would probably feel more sore tomorrow (Oh joy!) but then I should feel significantly better by Saturday.

Hooray!

Pain relief just in time for weekend festivities!

Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy is a specific series of cross tissue movements applied to the muscles by a fully trained Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapist.  Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy concentrates on all layers of muscles that have become depleted of their normal blood and lymphatic flow.  This specific therapy is designed to cause corrective changes to the damaged or adherent muscles and the adjacent soft tissue, improve the circulation with its natural healing properties and, thereby, effect changes on a cellular level.

Common conditions which have benefited from Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy include:

Arthritis                          Low Back Problems                Poor Circulation

Bell’s Palsy                     Multiple Sclerosis                    Sciatica

Bursitis                           Muscular Dystrophy                Scoliosis

Constipation                   Neuralgia                                 Sprains

Fibromyalgia                   Neuristis                                  Strokes

Gastric Disorders            Neurological Problems             Ticdouloureaux

Headaches                      Parkinson’s                             Whiplash

Insomnia                         Polio

She also recommended I try an herbal remedy called "Arnica Montana". It is from a flower and is said to relieve muscle pain, strain, and inflammation. I need to do research on it. I also ordered a book on Amazon.com called "Natural Cures They Don't Want You to Know About" by Kevin Trudeau. I am also going to try soaking in an apple cider vinegar and warm water mixture.

I guess I am going to start taking better care of myself. UGH! Resistance is futile when you feel as badly as I have been feeling. I'll take homeopathic cures anyday over chronic pain. The "traditional" doctor's prescription is to knock me into oblivion with pain-killers. Although the idea of a drug-induced coma sounds mildly appealing, I have a 2-year-old to look after.
