Got My Cast Off
27 August 2010As soon as it was off I knew there was no way I would be able to massage in a week. All the hoping and praying along with Electro-stem, hydrotherapy and lymph massage wasn’t enough. It was definitely helpful with range of motion and strength when it was in alignment. At this point my wrist cannot flex or extend, it is still very stiff.
The splint reminds me not to try moving it too much, but I applied Kinesio Tape to move things around with a lymph application and my skin color returned. The homework is the same as post carpal tunnel surgery. Its slow going, but I want to be able to work for a long time so this babying period is completely necessary. Yes, I am needing to remind myself so I don’t mess things up permanently.
I miss my Clientele and bodywork, but this too shall pass.
