Tendinitis....... Shoulder or Bicep

[Vickie]

Man, I am so sensitive to your fear of returning pain. I never share my own stories but I only started this work because I had constant pain most of my adolescence. It is not in your head, it is in your soft tissue and it is the process of healing. Don't be afraid of movement instigating some sensation, that I like to call information. You will readdress these problems in the process of drawing in the blood and the movements that correct the origin of the problems. The sensations we call pain will come up and disappear as you heal yourself. Be sure to be deliberate and exacting as you create training exercises that are designed to allow for a more natural and appropriate agreement of tension around your joints. You are doing all the right 'stuff'. Resting and supporting (anti-inflammatories are not bad in the short run) and addressing. I would make a recommendation to take shark's cartlidge. It is a natural anti-inflammatory and provides the matrix to heal any injury that has transpired in the soft tissue. This is not a treatment for arthritis (glucosamine and condroitin are the usual suggestions and could be necessary in the long run). For now you are trying to provide what your body needs to heal itself. Shark's Cartlidge is great for near injuries and will replace the need for analgesics. Start slow, trust your process, and enjoy the ride. It's rarely predictable but can become a permanent solution if your focused on the origin of the problem and not the symptom. Keep me posted. Reminder: you're not crazy but the healing process can seem so. Vik
