Okay - today heralds the commencement of a new route for me......
NEUROMUSCULAR THERAPY.
I hadn't heard about it until 2 days ago - tonight I have my first appointment and I do have to say, having spoken to the practitioner last night at length that I am feeling opitimistic......but then I tend to be optiomistic about all new remedies or therapies I embark on.
I do wonder though about a few aspects in this one.....
....the timing of me being made aware of it
....the person who brought it to my attention
....the care and obvious concern they showed in the manner in which it was mentioned to me
I have long wondered silently if 'fibromyalgia' is a correct label for this or could it be that various conditions are now just categorised under this heading? I don't know.
Anyhow, having spoken to the therapist last night, and he being so very positive in his approach, I head off to see him excited that I could indeed be taking the first steps to getting my 'old' life or former self back. Oh to have that energy and zeal for life again!
I have drunk my 1 litre of water over the past hour as instructed and I feel about fit to burst. I'm also thankful he's not an acupuncturist - I fear one needle would cause a tremendous leak as I've been keen to get as much water into me all day as possible. Lots has gone in, lots has come out but I fear much has also been retained!
It's a short way to his surgery and I plan to walk - a walk of faith! If anything's worth getting, it's worth going for, and yes, I will consider it almost a walk of faith.....I will get up and walk! And use the walking journey there to pray.
