While we’re on physio talk, did I just make a massive schoolboy error?
I’m seeing a physio / osteo (who is a trusted friend) who has identified a psoas issue has me doing physio exercises twice a day. I saw her in the real world for the first time (Covid) two weeks ago and she gave me acupuncture and a good ol pummelling.
I ran a few ks the next day and did some upper bod weights the day after (plus the prescribed physio) and my back locked up like nobody’s business.
I assume it spasmed to shield something else which shed inflamed. Anyway I’m only now able to get close to bending my back enough to put socks on.
Seeing her again on Thursday. She’s gonna bollock me isn’t she. She didn’t say I should take it easy and I’ve never done osteo / physio massage stuff really. Is it general knowledge that you have to ‘recover’ afterwards?
