I had started physical therapy while in Show Low earlier in the summer, but had not been able to get many sessions completed. Carl had physical therapy prescribed with his back pain. So now, both of us are getting physical therapy, for upper back pain in about the same location. We're seeing the same physical therapist, and she has us doing most of the same exercises.
We were the first ones there after lunchtime, so there were no other people using the equipment when we first started. Carl had his phone with him, so he took pictures of me doing a few of the exercises.
 |
| "Riding" the arm-bike to warm up |
 |
| Pulling the bands to strengthen shoulder muscles |
 |
| Doing torture on the wall with the Thera-Band |
 |
| Stretching my neck/shoulder |
Do they look like torture? Most of them aren't bad (though the red band on the wall is a bit difficult and really tires out our shoulders). My phone was stored in a cubby so no pictures of Carl, but he was doing the same exercises.
