So I started the Physical Therapy and I kinda like it. (The yoga pants were a good idea.) Found out I have back muscles I'm not using!
I pretend I'm seeing my Personal Trainer. The clinic is inside a fancy Athletic Club. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
So far I've just done about 45 min of gentle exercises and then 15 min of the best heat and stimulation ever. The best part: it's covered by Medicare. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
So my last session was today (8/26). I ended up going 2X/wk for 3 mos. Medicare never even blinked. I improved a LOT. Most stuff I can continue at home. As a bonus, Nine sent me an early birthday present- a half-round roller that I can use here. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed

Got the results of my DEXA scan today. My bone density has improved - a lot- since my last scan 5 years ago. Calcium supplements really do work.

My Doc has referred me for physical therapy - 6 sessions. Very tight lower back and hips. My Kid says the PT place at the fancy gym will be less rushed than the hospital and will take my insurance. Gotta call them. What do I wear?? Should I buy some yoga pants or something?
Wear loose, comfortable clothing. You don't necessarily need yoga pants, but you want something that will move easily with you. I wore a t-shirt and a pair of sweat capris to all of my PT appointments and it worked out well. Yoga pants may be more pilates-ball-friendly, if you end up being put through those exercises. - Hookuh Tinypants
i wear yoga pants. I see folks stretching in just about everything, even jeans (altho I asked the gal wearing jeans and she says she unbuttons them). Hips and lower back, you'll be on the floor pulling your knees to your chest a lot of different ways, so stretchy is important. - RudĩϐЯaЯïan

We have some serious flooding going on here. This is the clearest picture of what kind of damage it can do. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
Thanks, John. You can see the whole wall, sidewalk and grass verge fell straight down. There's even a lamppost and grass almost upright in the ditch. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
