Thanks for your input, Ladies! I have a number of exercises the physical therapist gave me to do, including the walking the hand up the wall & down 🙂 In fact, I usually do that one in the shower with the hot water running over my shoulder to help loosen up the muscles. Really interesting thought about laser therapy, blondemd. I haven't heard of that but I'll ask my doctor about it. Have either of you (or anyone else) tried acupuncture? I'm wondering if I should look into that. Unfortunately, funds are limited so I can only use therapy that's covered under my insurance <sigh>. Thanks again for the info!
