Located around St Stephens green, Adelaide Road direction?

The areas around my left shoulder/back/neck is at me the last 4 weeks. Not getting better, getting worse today. Any recommendations?

Cheers

Sorry to hear that Martin-

I had similar, though more than ‘at me’ a few years back-
an osteopath sorted it out-
with a mixture of remedies I wouldn’t have signed up for myself, only he was a mate-

Including acupuncture and hot cups-

That’s a decent link Zoltan posted.

An osteopath might have a more direct approach Martin. A deep tissue massage or two might help also, none of this fluffy whale music stuff though,
look for a sports therapist.

A seaweed bath might give some pretty instant relief, not sure if there any near you. I try to go for one every 8 weeks or so, always feel great afterwards.

Hope you get it sorted soon.

Thanks all for the flowers, get well soon cards and the whale music cd’s

Was at a sports Physiotherapist at lunch time. Its much better now. Have an appointment to go back on Friday to finish it off. Very happy with it, best 55euro iv spent in a while…

Really got her fingers in there and loosened it up

All the best

PS:

cathald: Trip to the Mournes again would be good if anyone is interested. I plan to photograph the Tors over the coming months if anyone wants to come along….

Can I ask where did you go, Martin? I got a quote from a Private Hospital, €150 per visit… but I would expect a brand new skeletal system to be installed for that kinda money. PM me with details if possible, thanks.

Hi Z,

These people are 8 mins from where I work

So far so good, my shoulder is slightly tightening up again this evening but hopefully the session on Friday will improve it a little more. It will take a few weeks to return to normal though. They seem very good, lots of experience with sports teams etc. Appointment was at 1:00 and I seen the lady at 1, no sitting around…

All the best
M
