Cupping

Y’all I’m at physical therapy chilling with some ice and tens while I type this.  So they have narrowed down my neck problems to nerves in my arms that are too tight, chest too tight, and no upper back mobility at all (but already making huge progress on that). 

So today she’s like “I want to do cupping on your back.”  Cause the fascia or whatever is too tight.  As in, won’t move at all.  So the cupping will pull it up and separate it from the muscle. 

So she was using the cups to move around my back.  Like put it on, suck it up tight, and move along my back. 

Holy fuck.  I have a high pain tolerance and nothing ever really hurts.  But that hurt.  I had to keep going “shit that hurts”.  I was like “I’m not saying stop, I’m just talking through it.”

She said the next sessions shouldn’t hurt as much. 

Jesus, have y’all had that done?  She said it was because my fascia was like stuck down to my muscles.  I’m gonna have to have husband see if that bruised tomorrow.
