Do I take medication?

I sure do! When times are tough, why not? I do promote going without if possible and I follow that myself. If something hurts, I figure out why. What is the cause? How can I adjust or eradicate the cause to relieve myself of the symptoms? After I figure that out, I usually wait and see how it goes. Most times this is all I need. If I injured myself or I can tell if something is inflamed, I will surely use ice or Biofreeze over taking an anti-inflammatory. If the pain is not going away or I am about to go to a playgroup with 6 infants, then it is time to consult the medicine cabinet.

During allergy season... I certainly will take a decongestant. Do you really want to hear me sniffling throughout your massage??

Ahhhhh

I used to get a 90 minute massage every week. However, with running a business and taking care of a baby on the move it has slipped a bit. I am on an intense workout program so I should be more vigilant than ever, but life takes over sometimes.... I had my massage this morning and I have no words besides a big long . How does a massage make me feel? Like myself again. Yes, I feel looser, pain free and more relaxed but it goes deeper than that. My body feels like it is functioning how it is supposed to. My parts are moving smoothly with a wide range of motion, I can breathe better, I feel lighter..... I just feel like a free woman on the move and nothing can stop me. You simply cannot bottle that feeling.
