I have massive myofasial pain syndrome going on in my back. My PT did something called "primal reflex therapy" and it triggered all sorts of crud to surface. It was like a way to by pass the concious mind and speak directly to the body memories. It was a trip.

I hope the pt brings you some releif of your pain. Chronic pain for me leads to anxiety and PTSD symptoms cause I'm always in "flight-mode" cause the pain is happening all the time so my body thinks there is a present danger.

peace be the journey
