Physical Therapy, Session 1
and to think i wanted to go into PT for a living. i still see the benefits of it, but man, did it make me sore (and a little grouchy) today.
ankle program for me:
1) circles x 20 (counterclockwise and clockwise)
2) "draw" the alphabet (all letters) with my foot, as if writing in the sand.
3) move ankle up/down, left/right. repeat.
4) repeat steps 1-3 three times each day.
5) "scar tissue" massage. that's what it's called, but it should be called anti-scar tissue massage. the idea is that i rub the scars...*OUCH*...to prevent scar tissue buildup. this is two times per day.
6) ice as needed.
so, PT for me 2x per week. feels like i'll be back on the vicodin tonight!
on another topic: happy birthday, Soopahviv! you totally rock. pop goes the weasel!
