Solutions to Sore Back

We are here to constantly empty our cup and learn!

This past few weeks I had a nice reminder of how important it is to stay on track and when you get off-Get back on. I truly believe, I was brought here to help others through my experiences and lessons. I love it and take on the assignment....

'Hey Rod, my back is really tight on the traps but only on the right side from here to here...can you massage it?'

Two days later....

'Hi Dr. Bob! (our chiropractor and friend) I brought all my current vitamins for you to do BodyTalk and see if I am taking what my body likes and needs. Is that ok?'
So, I find out my body likes them all except for the 14 complex Mushrooms...body doesn't need them.
'Bren, your body is showing a depletion in Calcium and magnesium', says Dr Bob
'Ya? I usually take these Nikken ones but I just ran out and am waiting for my order. Does my body like these ones?
'Don't know as the bottle is empty, so the testing isnt responding' says Dr Bob
'Ok, well I will get my order in, in a few days from Nikken and I will continue taking since my body needs Cal/Mag'

Rod goes through the same process of tests and he doesn't need any of them except 14 Mushroom Complex by Nikken!

Sure enough my Nikken order arrives and ...... 'Oh Rod they sent the wrong order!'

Actually, I changed the wrong order and the Cal/Mag will be in after Nov 7th.....I will wait to get more because it's in my next order and that's only a few more days.

Now it's been 1.5 weeks with no Cal/mag.

Monday at a nice early hour of 3am I wake to pain in my Thoracic (mid back) right around where the muscle pain was days ago. I didn't do anything new, have been deep stretching, doing my walks, haven't been training Martial Arts..what is this caused from? Doesn't matter; I call Dr Bob.

'Hi Amy, can I see Dr Bob by any chance today?'

'Sorry Bren, he is booked. I can get you in Tuesday.'
'ok, great! Rod too please.'

Monday I was working like a person in traction. Stiff and so sore I couldn't reach forward to point at a coffee cup. I will keep working through it. Stretch. More stretching. Get a quick massage in the areas-AAAAwwwweee! I start to sweat.

'HI Bren. You ok?' asks Jay
' I am super but my back in the thoracic area is so tight and the muscles feel like they are freaking out!' I am off to see Dr Bob.
'Ya, as soon as I came in I felt your energy was off, in pain. Plus your face is off color and your eyes show pain.' says Jay
We talk for some little time and he suggests it's low Cal/Mag in my body. When was your last cycle?' 'oh, just a week ago'
'Yup, your body is very depleted in Cal/mag and that is why your muscles are freaking out' says Jay

Off to Dr Bob I happily go with Rod driving cause shifting gear is not easy.
Sure enough, there are adjustments made in my thoracic, but the main issue was my body was depleted in Cal/mag so my muscles tighten right up and pulled and are stressed out. I purchase Cal/mag from Dr Bob and don't wait for my Nikken order to arrive!

Lesson-Our Bodies are our Temples. They talk to us. Listen and act. Respect the body.
