Attempting to get back on the program, but my back is not wanting to cooperate at all. I've been going to the chiropractor off and on for about 2 months now. I just started going to a massage therapist as well. So, hopefully they will get me straightened out. The problem is the muscles in my back and shoulders. From all my tension and from old injuries they are very, very tense and tight. So, my spine doesn't flex and move the way it should. This causes the muscles that are supposed to move the spine to stop doing their job, so they atrophy. The other muscles take over that job and so they get strained and tense. It's a vicious cycle.
Will be going to noon class today and am hoping to start keeping this blog up to date again.
