Angie walked into PT feeling better than earlier this week. She told Lily that aside from some pain in the upper back, she was feeling looser in her middle back. Lily confirmed this.
It seemed that the new shoulder and upper back exercises were causing the tightness Angie was experiencing. Also due to the tightness, Angie claimed she was overcompensating by sitting a little worse than she should be. Lily told her that she had to work through the pain. Angie said ‘that’s all I’ve been doing for that past couple months.” Lily laughed and agreed but reminded Angie that she needed to just be patient and that things would clear up in a bit.
The abs exercises were still challenging to Angie which she mentioned to Jessica, the PT aide. Jess confirmed that they are not easy and it takes a long time to build up those muscles because we don’t concentrating on using them when we sit, when we walk etc.
Overall, it was a good session but something was still bothering Angie.
