Kneading Dough
As a result of bad sleeping postures which consequences I only realise after the harm has been inflicted (very Murphy's Law); and my reluctance to adopt more conventional sleeping postures, I have sufffered the onset of the Muscle Ache.
This has led to necessary costly intervention tactics also known as the Massage Parlour.
I hardly use certain explosive Singlish phrases but now I must...
Wah Lau!!! Super pain man! Whoever said massage was always comfortable? But perhaps I should clarify - the one I went for was acupoint massage which meant that the masseurs attacked (yes attack I believe) certain points, applying significant pressure to stimulate blood circulation, aid healing of ailments, improve the internal energy or whatever within the body, and provoke occasional wails from newbies like me.
There I was squirming in pain as he attended to my sciatica [just found out it is on the back near the hips... lower back perhaps?] and my neck and shoulders.
When I left it felt like it was all worth it. But now the specific acupoints which were targetted are rather pain. Well it is an exchange I am happy with considering how difficult it was to sleep before this because of the throbbing pain.
Value for money? Sure, I napped for two hours just before writing this post. =)
Praise the Lord for acupuncture!
