i honestly think that when they busted mine up it helped out with all the pulling on my bones and joints. could all be in my mind but i could tell a difference. hell most of the time 50-75% better is great especially as we get older and more busted up

TweetI remember you talking about this in another thread, or maybe it was this one. AHHH i need that so bad especially with the knots in my back!

most say that only 1x per month is all that is needed and suggested but my therapist was super aggressive with mine on my legs and we were doing it 3x per week. so see what they say and go with what is going to help you best the fastest. i only get my back done 1x per month and hams and glutes as well. i will probably transition to chest delts and arms here shortly when everything else is good to go. cool thing about this technique is when you cant hear or feel it anymore then you are all good. they cant fake that to make more money off of you

Yea Guns, thats exactly why im doing this. Ive always gotten deep tissue on my back and i still have these dam knots. I also have alot of elbow pain from doing weighted dips which i guess could be considered tennis elbow. So those two things ill have them look at. Ill take pics and log this for sure. Its only $50 for the therapy because its not covered by insurance.

hell yeah man. i pay 45 for 30 mins and she spends about 5-10 mins on each zone of the muscle being worked. that's all that is needed i guess. cool thing about my lady is she travels and works on different parts of the olympic team, so she is damn good. it kind of screwed me last month because she was out of town when i needed to get in and i am not seeing my primary doc for a ref to go see the pt to have it done. i would rather pay out of pocket than have to go through on the bs to see my physical therapist over and over again

so true.

TweetI went to my appointment this morning. The doctor is one of the best in tampa because he does many Rays & Lightning players and hes not even a team doctor. He looked me over and said im in excellent structural health and that i dont really need to see a chiro but he did recommend Graston on my back and laser therapy on my elbows because i have tendonitis.

My next appointment is next Monday.

TweetBy the way the doctor was an old school powerlifter and he knows all about the typical elements of a body builder. So it was cool we related a lot.

TweetSo I went to my doctor appointment today and he did about 10 minutes worth of Graston on my back here is a picture of it.

TweetHe worked the knots in my back
