torture

When I woke up Tuesday morning to my right foot hurting I'd finally had enough.  Years ago John Kuss recommended Performance Wellness to me so I gave them a call and Tuesday evening found myself on the table getting worked over good.  They are primarily chiropractic care but also do sports therapy.  Dr Olsen said he'd seen many cases of plantar fasciitis and went right to work on the knots in my right calf.  He had me squirming and cursing but I took it.  Then he said he was going to do something that would hurt real bad for one minute.  I told him to do whatever he needed to do.  He got a flat piece of hard plastic and began scrapping the tender spot where the heel and arch meet.  There's a knot of scar tissue in that spot and he worked it hard and it hurt like hell.  He's going to see me several times a week for several weeks.  A couple of bits of good news. My foot already felt better the first morning after the initial torture session and he say I can continue running too!  They are also going to help me with some exercises to get my glutes back on track and firing too.  I'm really excited about this positive step forward.

Me and doggie got in an easy early morning 4 mile run/walk this morning too and doggie went over 300 documented miles this morning too!!
