A massage before heading out on a family visit

I just got back from having a neuro-muscular massage to try to address soreness in one arm, etc. This is different from a traditional Swedish massage as this therapy focuses on using pressure on trigger points to relax muscles, increase blood flow, reduce soreness and possibly increase range of motion. Overall I liked it although it was a bit painful at times. I certainly will do it again. The therapist even showed me a new stretching exercise to help the specific problem I am experiencing.

Other than that, we are just getting ready to head off for while on a family visit trip.

Updates when we get back.
