Gemellus


My hip has been killing me so I went to see a massage therapist yesterday. It hurt like the dickens while he was doing deep tissue massage. I was honestly doing "labor breathing" while he was trying to help my muscle let go. Apparently my gemellus was all seized up and since you can't really stretch that muscle nothing I was doing was helping. This morning we ran 5 miles and it didn't hurt. No pain or pulling at all. My hip felt a little looser than normal and a bit tender (like a bruise) but that was all. I am so excited!

When I go to physical therapy and they do ASTYM on me and pull out all their torture tools I labor breath too - deep tissue massage hurts!
