Posted: 09/10/02 - 20:14 Post subject: piriformis syndrome anyone????
i'm not sure, but i think i've found out what has been ailing me these past 18 months. i had a deep tissue (sports-type) massage today and, after describing my symptoms of pain, this therapist isolated that butt muscle and rubbed the snot out of it.
i had to use lamaze breathing but damn, did it feel good. i actually feel 10 lbs lighter and so less stiff. it was instant relief. i just hope it lasts.
i have had right hamstring tightness and nagging pain for months due to a leg length diff. i have seen orthopedic MDs with NO help. according to her, i need to release the built up lactic acid in that muscle as it is now torqued all out of line. .
if anyone has had nagging hamstring pain maybe this is the cause for you. it was really getting to be a downer for me, i hope this works---my orthopedic "surgeon" and sports medicine specialist can now BITEME.
