relaxation exercise

well, we tried MFR and heat treatment, instead of ice.
Trapz stretch was done manually (maitland), and as self-strectching at home.
the mention areas do get soften aft treatment, however,
according to pt., effect last < 1/7.
the size and hardness of lump at upp. cx remained unchanged when
pt come back for treatment, twice weekly.

something to clarify,
is ischemic compression the same with acupressure point release?



thanks
