A Girl Named PJ

Ouch

October 28, 2014

dog on couchHelp! I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!

This was my view yesterday afternoon after I tweaked my back trying to stand up with Asa in my arms. Thankfully, my dad was home and able to grab the baby as I crumpled to the living room floor, where I lay for most of the evening.*

Ouch.

My back already ached from all of the stress-induced muscle knots. If this new lower back pain doesn’t start to feel better in a few days, I may need to consider making an appointment with a chiropractor…or a masseuse or acupuncturist. Or all three.

Have you ever tried acupuncture? I haven’t, but I’m equally frightened and fascinated by it.

I have two meetings in New York City today, so I’ll be taking a hot shower and popping a pain pill before catching a train. Assuming my back doesn’t get the best of me, I’m attempting my first Ballet Beautiful class this afternoon! I’d love it if you’d come along with me via Instagram.

*Not pictured: The dog trying to steal the tennis ball I was laying on to help relieve the muscle pain in my back. That little jerk. He doesn’t even like to play with tennis balls!

    I am absolutely addicted to acupuncture. Honestly, if it wasn’t happening to me, I wouldn’t believe it, but it changed my life. My knees are so much better, I sleep better, I feel more relaxed… it’s incredible. I go every two weeks and have been for a year now. It’s incredible.

    Hit me up next time you’re in the city! Would love to say a quick hello!

      Really?! Wow, that’s quite a testimonial. I’m so curious about it — not just the physical benefits of acupuncture, but the mental benefits, too. Your insurance doesn’t cover your treatments, does it? Is acupuncture expensive?
