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.

I have often wondered about various message techniques. In a book I just recently read they doctor said that messaging the lymph nodes was helpful. Wow, I just could not even feature that. But a good message therapist would be able to do that don't you think.
