@johnbishop Thanks, John! I learn a lot from you too. I would encourage you to try myofascial release. It helps everything function better. There are some self help books and DVDs on the MFR website and you can use small balls from a sports store about 3 inches in diameter to lay on to self treat places that are hot, hard, or tender. I also found a curved massage stick at a 5 Below store (sports section) that has a 2 headed rubber knob on the end that rotates and lock into position. It's shaped like a question mark and helps you reach around or use it when you can't get your hand in the right position. You can find a therapist on the MFR site too, but you can also call Therapy on the Rocks in Sedona, AZ and ask if there is someone near you who has trained there or in the seminars they teach around the country. A therapist can assess an show you things to do specific to help you. If you try this and it helps, I hope you'll share your progress. https://myofascialrelease.com
