So I went to therapy and the therapist says my hips are out of alignment.

My right ilium likes to look away, see the world that's passing by, while my left does her best to keep on the straight and narrow. Somehow this misalignment causes tight hips and a hyper-mobile lower back, as well as the pain I was experiencing.

If I don't do anything about this problem one leg will get shorter and shorter until small children point and laugh at me.

So I'm stuck doing physical therapy workouts. Whether they work or not remains to be seen.

The PT appointments are always finished off with sonogram heating treatments and electric stimulation, which feels like a nice massage, but I can't help but wondering if it's just a lot of mumbo-jumbo. Even though this physical therapist is highly regarded and a very nice lady, I've never really trusted doctors, and I guess this distrust extends to physical therapists, now, too.
