This morning, I shadowed Kenny treating a patient with a back injury. He used techniques such as dry needling, massage, and use of a lacrosse ball to target the trigger point areas and promote muscle relaxation. Afterwards, he had two more patients with back injuries in similar ways. Back and pelvic injuries seem to be the most common issues here at BreakThrough Cary. I then watched treatment done on the people with neck, hip, and foot injuries. I was able to shadow Kenny in the morning, but his hours are 6am-12:30pm on Wednesdays, so it’s a bit odd in that sense. Around 1pm, I was able to partake in a therapeutic yoga class with Rachel Gorman (CA alum). Some of the people in her class had cancelled, so since there was only one other person she invited me to participate. I really enjoyed it!
