Nothing suspicious in him charging so little tbh. Few members of the family know him and he says that he has made enough money in his life and just wants to help people now. First session was £35, but after that, probably just trying to get me better - nice man. Thanks for the directories...

Found exactly what I was looking for. Been working with a tennis ball to try to loosen up the knot. Actually got loads of problems which have mounted up, but a couple videos deal with how to stretch out the region. Will work hard on these. Top site.

Okay. Been a few days since my last appointment. The appointment consisted mainly of interferential treatment and he stretched out my psoas using a bench too. He identified that problems with the left side of the psoas and lesser problems with the right psoas. I pressed him on the cause and he...

Thanks, you guys, for putting up with me. I understand the absolutely minimal progress I'm making must be frustrating for you people in the know, to read about. As for today, just about to stretch out a bit, but yeh, the soreness from treatment has worn off and there is now just the same dull...

Feel a lot better today. Still definitely the deep pain in the lower right back and right glute; but I feel that for the first time in weeks that it might be very slowly healing. Liz, could you recommend me a good psoas stretch, please. Also. Is there someone you could recommend in the SE...

Feel better than yesterday. Legs are both very stiff though and there is now soreness up where the leg connects with the front of the hip. Oh, it doesn't matter. I'm going to rest it for another day and then adopt a new strategy. Previously, I've been trying to stay off the feet as much as...

Still a bit sore from the treatment, will update tomorrow.

Not much money 'wasted' this time. Since we previously agreed on just an IFT session, it was just £5, despite the fact that it was more like 30 mins of IFT and 30 mins of genuine treatment. He said to ring him in one week, either way just to check how I'm doing and to book one more appointment...

Nothing really. Basically, we start with my back to him and I bend down to touch my toes. He says I lean to one side and so he looks to remedy this. He noted that the pain is in the piriformis and that there was problems with the psoas of my left hip. No 'single' diagnosis though. He also...

Had some treatment from the osteopath, today. It mainly consisted of interferential therapy with some treatment on the legs and massage on the hamstrings. He noted some problems with the psoas muscle which he attempted to fix. He said to wait a week and then ring him to see how it is.

'Fallen' may have been misheard on my part. I really will press him on what the recovery time if his diagnosis is right, should be. If I go way beyond that time, without improvement, I will look to another doctor (maybe a physio this time) and perhaps press them to look at the lower back for...

Just checked his business card, definitely an osteopath. Looking online, it does not look like recovery times for his condition are good or well known. I hope I'll be better in a couple weeks, because that is when I plan to give it a go in the nets. However, of course, it is unlikely I will go...

I'm not sure what it is precisely called. I'll ask him on Saturday. To me, he said the sacrum was fallen, he said on a maybe related note that he worked to get my legs at the same length and to get my hips lined up properly. I'm unsure. Intuitively, I think he seems like a chiropractor. Looking...

Okay, so currently, it is a pretty relaxed program of the piriformis stretch for 30s both legs, twice a day. The quad stretch mentioned before, 10s both legs, twice a day and ditto for the hamstring stretch. And I'm seeing the osteopath on Saturday to get his piriformis stretch confirmed. I'm...

Got the three sets of stretches done (hamstring, piriformis, quad) today but generally feel especially tender and sore. For the piriformis, I'm unsure how I'm supposed to be applying this pressure? Supposing I have the left foot on the right knee. Is my left hand applying downward and away...
