Who knows how it happened, when or why it occurred!? \u00a0But darn it! \u00a0I jammed my shoulder, yet again, and ended up kicking myself for taking just a little too long to seek out the needed myofascia massage therapy that\u00a0allowed me to get back into action.<\/p>\n


\n\"Screen<\/a>It will probably be a chronic injury for me since the bike accident 18 months ago. \u00a0It is my dominant arm for all actions; used for spotting clients, picking up the tea pot, moving the equipment, springs etc. \u00a0One way or another I\u00a0made a move that compressed on the nerve and limited my range of motion greatly. \u00a0So I rolled the shoulder out with a ball, walked around for a few days with a portable stem buzzing away on the nerve while I taught until\u00a0I was reminded by a client (former massage therapist himself) that a little “hands-on” massage would release the knots I was holding.<\/p>\n

I knew where the trigger point was, I just couldn’t manipulate it myself. \u00a0I booked a massage session with FreedOM\u00a0Therapeutics<\/a> and sixty minutes later I was back to business. \u00a0Full range of motion was returned and these two respective videos (below) of my actual workouts\u00a0were performed the very next day.<\/p>\n
