PHYSICAL BREAKDOWN
In my 27th year, the cumulative effect
of my body-damaging incidents became too much for me,
especially those from the cherry-picker tipover.
IMMEDIATE AFTERMATH OF ‘THE TIPOVER’
The most obvious initial injuries were
a broken left wrist plus a very sore body and head.
Once home from the overnight stay in hospital,
the following week was focused on resting up
and a few warm baths to relieve the aching body.
After 6 weeks I was back at work - still fairly sore -
but able to work at about 60-70% capapcity.
MORE NOTICEABLE OVER NEXT TWO YEARS
While in the short term the ‘cherry-picker’ injuries improved,
I was soon needing to get some relief from lingering/recurring pains,
which included attending sessions from a ‘rolfing’/deep-tissue masseur,
whose considerable skills provided some benefits, but not enough
to stop the more and more noticeable deteriorisation of the body.
It became -
harder to get up from sitting in a chair,
harder to work ‘at-pace’ all day,
harder to get out of bed,
harder to get dressed -
to the point where early one morning,
I awoke with the ‘sheets hurting me’
and when I finally got to work,
I could hardly get out of the vehicle.
My body was not good!
PHYSICAL BREAKDOWN
Basically two years after ‘the tipover’, the body could not operate
at a level any near where it used to pre-tipover.
My body had reached a point
where it would hardly do any physical tasks
- even cleaning my teeth was diffcult -
in effect, reaching a point of physical breakdown.
MANY INJURIES
The cherry-picker and other list of injuries
I was trying to live with were now numerous
- to summarize some of the major ones -
multiple head trauma including concussion,
at least two major whiplash incidents,
weakened right shoulder,
damaged left lower arm/wrist,
spine bent in ways it shouldn’t be,
right glute deep bruising, and
tail bone compression/bruising.
I could no longer work in my business, so the machines were sold
and a relocation was made to live in the region’s port ‘city’.
MANY THERAPIES
Over the next nearly 20 years, I used many forms of therapy
all aimed at avoiding surgery and/or pharma drugs.
DEVELOPMENT OF “S-P-C”
By early 2009, it became obvious that I needed to do ‘more myself’,
than relying mainly on other people/professionals to ‘fix my body’.
I had already started to develop ‘modified’ exercises and stretches,
in an effort make it easier for (say) the chiropractor to manipulate my spine.
But it wasn’t enough and hence the further development
of what has become “Self-Physi-Chiro”.
