I've been fighting a bad back all year as last January I piled drived into an ice bank and wrenched my lower back. I can only get 45 good minutes out of it before it gets sore and I have to back off to finish my rides. I can ride for as many hours as I need, but it's gone with 45 minutes of pounding. So today I went to a recommended deep tissue guy and he worked my back and butt muscles over so hard I was "tapping out" on the table. The premise is to break down scar tissue and he could have just as well cut it out the way it hurt. He says I'll be sore tomorrow, I feel pretty good right now. He also went to work on the muscles that are responsible for my chondromalacia in my left knee. We'll see if this new "vodoo" works or not. BTW he let my Psoras muscle have it and I think I've found a new sort of torture--I confessed to things I've never done!! Anyone do this and feels that it works?
2. How about the knee, can chondomalacia be treated with out surgery, or is this stretching and manipulation common treatment?
Thanks
