I have had pretty severe neck pain off and on for years. The latest bout was terrible. But then they gave me a shot in the leg of a muscle relaxer and it mostly better within 30 minutes!
Anywho, the Dr. gave me a referral to physical therapy. I've never been to PT, but have heard the torture horror stories. Admittedly, I've been putting off the appointment. A nice massage sounds better.
So what are your PT experiences?

I haven't ever needed a PT - but like I told my mother hurt a lot for a little while or hurt chronically forever. Make an appointment!
I think they're great, but it depends on what you need. They give excellent massages and their heat packs can be really relaxing.
Yes, Mom (er, Tummy)!
Now, Puffy, that's how you entice me! Consultation and three follow up appts made for Nov. Luckily they have a clinic right in my building, so they make it too easy NOT to cancel.
Sorry I missed this.
Agree with Puffy. I loved my PT for my wrist.
It started with a heat pack for several minutes to loosen things up. Then there was a massage. She was great to make sure she never hurt me. Then I would have all sorts of exercises then a cooldown with an ice pack.
The only down side for me was that it took at least two hours of my day each time. Travel to and from and then everything involved.
Plus, she was a huge Packer fan!
I see your comment about it being in the building, so you have no reason not to schedule.
