I decided to give Rolfing a try for my Costochondritis, and these are the results. The first session went very well. It was not more painful than any normal massage. I learned that Rolfing uses basically the same technique as Myofacial Release, but Rolfing systematically works the entire body in a specific order to produce more complete results. After the first session I felt pretty good and relaxed and made another appointment. It was hard to tell if there was any benefit to my chest though. The second session was less confortable, there were a few spots on my feet that were very painful and I came out of the session feeling a bit worse than going in. The third session, a few days later, was similar to the second and I didn't feel like I was really benefiting from this therapy. The therapist also said that there was some inflamation in different parts of my body and suggested that I "google 'inflamation'". I was a little annoyed by this because I had just spent the past 6 months using google to search for any information related to costochondritis and other problems related to inflamation. So I decided to stop the Rolfing sessions because I didn't feel like they were really helping.
Would I recommend Rolfing to other people suffering from Costochondritis or other similar problems? I don't really see much benefit to Rolfing over finding a decent massage therapist. But for me what works best is Yoga. It's like a massage where you can control the intensity and duration of each part and improves your fitness, flexibility, and coordination at the same time. After a session of yoga, I feel about as relaxed or maybe more relaxed than I do after massage. And with yoga, I don't feel the stress of losing money. But a massage is a nice for an occasional treat.

ReplyDeleteIt is no secret that I have a very deep and personal relationship with God. I have pushed and resisted that relationship this past year through all the bullshit I have had to go through living with Herpes but once again, God is bigger than my stubbornness and broke through that outbreak cold sore and all I had Genital Herpes. For me personally, hearing over and over how I am not good enough has really invaded my mind in the worst way possible. I completely shut down and I was just waking up like is this how life going to end this temporary herpes outbreak “fuck everybody with herpes if you know what I mean” but let's be honest here...
ReplyDeleteIt is a cowardly to say no to herbal medicine. It is fear based. And it is dishonest to what my heart wants. Don't build a wall around yourself because you are afraid of herbals made or taking a bold step especially when it's come to health issues and getting cure. So many young men/ women tell me over and over that Dr Itua is going to scam me but I give him a try to today I feel like no one will ever convince me about herbal medicine I accept Dr Itua herbal medicine because it's cure my herpes just two weeks of drinking it and i have been living for a year and months now I experience outbreak no more, You can contact him if you need his herbal medicine for any such diseases like, Herpes, Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Syndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva.Fatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic,Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob,,Lyme Disease,Epilepsy, ,ALS,Hepatitis,Copd,Parkinson disease.Genetic disease,Fibrodysplasia disease,Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Men/Woman infertility, bowel disease ,Huntington's disease ,Diabetes,Fibroid. disease,Lupus,Lipoid Storage diseases( Gauchers disease),Polycystic Disease.,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Cirrhosis of Liver,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma,Allergic,HIV, Epilepsy, Infertility, Love Spell,. Email..drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com then what's app.+2348149277967.... My advice to any sick men/women out there is simple... Be Always an open book. Be gut wrenching honest about yourself, your situation, and what you are all about. Don't hold anything back. Holding back will get you nowhere...maybe a one way ticket to lonelyville and that is NOT somewhere you want to be. So my final truth...and I'm just starting to grasp this one..
