Re: ccp and detox, massage - MASSAGE THERAPIST RECOMMENDATION NEEDED

[Guest guest]

Long time lurker, dx w/RA 3 yrs ago...I couldn't agree more about the

importance of finding a massage therapist that is experienced with

our types of conditions. I regularly go to one that specialized in

Neuro muscular therapy which is essentially triger point massage. It

seems to really help keep my muscles loose and not overly

tense (which cause me to have migraines if I don't do anything) as I

have a hard time with exercise these days and can't work them out in

the way that I used to enjoy.

Speaking of massage therapy, does anyone know a good professional in

the Dallas, TX area? I am moving there soon from Atlanta, GA and am

in need of some recommendations. Any help would be appreciated!!

Gentle hugs,

Cat in ATL (soon to be DFW)
