6.15.15 Chips and Salsa Part 2 OR Unladylike

Monday, my legs were especially tight. They have been that way so much so that I’m not driving right now.  I hope it’s a temporary thing but I just have to wait and see and in the meantime just NOT drive.  I’ve had MS long enough to know that it’s (the disease) is not nice or fair so I’ll just wait.  Like I’m good at that?! We worked on the black table after Nick kneaded my calves.  Heather came over and helped stretch my legs out once I was on the table.  She worked my left leg (stretching  and PNF’s) and Nick worked my right.  I told Heather that this was Chips and Salsa Part 2 and she laughed.

We worked the whole time  with me laying on my back.  I only kind of wondered why Nick didn’t have me lay on my stomach but my legs were SO tight, maybe it was better to just stay on my back.  I watched both Nick and Heather working REALLY hard and commented on it.  I told Nick that it must be tiring then kind of looked at him questioningly.  He said, “It doesn’t matter.  As long as it makes you feel better.”  My legs really started feeling better!  They began to relax and that felt nice.  When the muscles feel that tight… It really hurts.

Then Nick and Heather bent my legs so my knees were bent and my feet were flat on the table close to my butt.  They took turns stretching my legs by putting their hand on my knee and stretching it outward so my feet were stationary and my knee was almost on the table.  They took turns with each of my knees stretching my groin muscles out.  The more they stretched me, the more my legs felt relaxed.  My time was up so Nick put me in my car.  As we drove home, my Mom asked how my legs felt.  I told her that they felt relaxed and looked down.  Because of the last stretch,  my legs were stuck opened.  More open then is normal for me.  Most of the time, when my legs feel so tight, they close up tightly.  Now, my legs were SO relaxed it was kind of unladylike.

See?
