I have had PT before. Both different kinds. Both gave me more mobility, but didn't do anything to help my pain. When ever the PT did the massage thing to help "break up" my adhesions, it did hurt. In the long run, it cost alot to go through it. I really didnt think that it was worth it. For a while after I was out of PT, I went to a gym & did all the excercises I did in PT & walked on the treadmill 20 mins a day. I did it until my pain was so bad I couldnt do it any more, & the gym was much less than PT. In this situation, I think you have to listen to your own body & finances to decide what is right for you. Good luck, Robin
