I was finally able to get in to see my doctor and get some referrals for physical rehab. This afternoon, I visited my chiropractor, Dr. Glenn Cashman. He does more than adjustments; he uses a number of techniques to rehabilitate chronic injuries. He is the team chiropractor for Memorial Cup Champions, the Vancouver Giants so he understands sports injuries. Glenn and I went to highschool together and we did our undergraduate degrees in Kinesiology at Simon Fraser University at the same time. Glenn practices at Metro Pointe Chiropractic near Metrotown in Burnaby.
Today, he put me through a fair amount of pain using active release massage techniques. I have a green light to continue to ride as long as I avoid riding that hurts. At this point, that means no hills and no hard, time-trial riding.
Tomorrow, I continue the pain with my first visit to physiotherapy. I will post details when I recover. The sadists among you will enjoy reading for a few days.
Finally, a quick update of my easy ride home from work yesterday:
Distance: 8.73 km
Time: 18:39
Average Speed: 28.2 km/h
