I found this interesting how problems with fascia can cause stiffness and pain in other regions of the body but not show up on X-ray, CT or MRI.
Fascia is a third system in body connecting muscles and skeleton
Probably explains why yoga and qigong can help in PD.
This is amazing. Thank you for sharing. I’ve always believed in that. I remember many years ago, when I was a child my parents used to pull my fascia up and down my back to adjust, relief pain and align my back. It worked immediately and it felt wonderful. I do this for my husband now. I wonder if done regularly, if it would have any benefits for PwP.
Yes, that’s what I was wondering. I wonder if some stiffness from Pd could be caused by problems with fascia. Not all, but if someone is apathetic to the point they don’t move much maybe they do seize up a bit?
I’m curious to know what was the sleeping medicine they gave her to make her sleep but instead targeted the seizures and the neurotransmitters that we’re misfiring.
Who sorry? I don’t understand your reply.
I’m so sorry.
I had a temporary mental lapse of forgetfulness. I thought for a moment that I was replying to someone else in a different forum. Another person shared the following youtube with me about a girl in a vegetative state, who was diagnosed with a brain disorder which caused inflammation in her brain completely shutting down all functions, except for involuntary eye movements and back to back seizures. When given a sleeping medication to help her body sleep and control involuntary eye movement, she had a very unexpected response. The sleeping medication didn’t put her to sleep but somehow targeted the neurotransmitters that were misfiring instead. It’s very interesting. You might want to watch it.
I was very curious about how this sleeping medication worked to reverse her condition and successfully triggered the brain and nervous system to regain normal function
👍👍
I've been interested in myofacial release and trigger point therapy for sometime. Theres an interesting video on YouTube about how the muscles eventually freeze into place if the muscles are not moved, flexed, stretched or massaged. Eventually the fascia takes over, grows and hardens until the arm or whatever is immobile, in the case of frozen shoulder. He had a cadaver that the arm from shoulder to elbow was covered in hard fascia, completely immobile. I can't imagine the pain, I've had frozen shoulder, twice.
Trigger points are a bit different, but important in terms of mobility issues. A tight muscle tied up in knots causes pain and stiffness, as in the back .
Exercising and walking when your muscles are stiff
? about stiffness, I may have hit my peak🥺
pain?
Back to my leg pain issue
How do you deal with central pain syndrome?
