As I finished my 4 mile walk last night by running 1.2 miles at the end I was thinking – oh my God I am back!!! I may never be fast (wasn’t before) I may never be distance(wasn’t before) but I am me doing what makes me feel good and I owe you that. I feel proud of who I am and what I have worked to achieve and without you none of it would have happened. A well before I am crying at my desk (happy tears). After 3 years I feel like I finally am getting my life back. I went from running 4 miles just about every day, lifting weights, being active, riding motorcycle with my husband to barely being able to sit on my chair at work or home, spending several hours a day on ice packs and taking pain medication to try to just exist. I struggled to do simple things like taking clothes out of the basket as my back would go into spasms and drop me to my knees. I couldn’t stand in my kitchen for a day baking, frosting cakes and all the things I loved without the knowledge that I would be in a lot of pain for days to come. In 2012 a friend of mine told me I should go see TJ, how much he had helped her. I told her I have been to massage therapists, chiropractors, acupuncture etc… and none of it had worked. She told me there is something truly special about him just give him a try. Well I did finally pick up the phone and make that appointment. I cannot tell you how I wish I would have known him when this injury first occurred. He has taken the time to get to know me. What injuries have built up to this last injury, what are my goals for my body and how do I approach healing? In the last year I have come so far. I am not afraid to push my body and I am just as surprised when I do at how resilient it has become. I have myself running and power walking again. I can ride a day on the motorcycle with my husband and actually enjoy myself. I have learned ways to offset muscle spasms or pain if they do start to creep up. I no longer dread how I am going to feel tomorrow but look forward to what I will feel like in another year as I continue to strengthen and strive to achieve more each and every day.
