very pretty picture of you. happy holidays, lanay memommy1947 <MEMOMMY1947@...> wrote: A tendar point in FMS is certain places that when 5mm of pressure is applied it causes extreme pain. 5mm is approx the weight of a nickel. A trigger point is where the pain radiates from. For example, you can be having pain in one place but the pain is actually caused by a muscle spasm in another place. Kind of like sciatic

pain, it can go down your leg to your toes, but the origin of the pain is the back. I have had trigger points in my upper arm that when touched would cause pain in my jaw. Hope this is understandable. Tendar points are in specific areas only. Trigger points can be anywhere. Sandie -- new to group hello, my name is LaNay i am 42 and i am from Michigan.

Thank You, that is one of the ways that I try and occupy my mind, to get it off my pain and troubles for a bit. I can loose myself in working and playing with the graphics.

Actually the best way to use the tennis ball is to roll on it. This will somewhat simulates trigger point therapy. If the area is around the shoulder blades, put a tennis ball in a tube sock and throw it over your shoulder. Then roll the tennis ball around the area up against a wall. Much easier than trying to get up off the floor! That could take DAYS for me! LOL

Love,

I have tried using the tennis ball before my back surgery, it didn't work. Now I have to be careful as when I had my lamenectomy the neurosurgeon does not like to do a fusion unless absolutely necessary and reduces mobility. I do have a TENS unit and have excellent results with it when I need it. I have a thermopore heat pad also that I swear by. In fact I have two one in the bedroom and one I keep on the back of the sofa in the living room. Sandie -- new to group> > > hello, my name is LaNay i am 42 and i am from Michigan.
