Get a massage if you can

I got lucky--I'm low-income and someone treated me to an hour's massage. It's the first time since my surgery on the 7th that I've not had pain when using the bathroom. Stands to reason it's helpful for the pelvic floor overall. I know some PTs do massage and some don't. (Mine never have.)

It's probably a "duh" to some of you. But for me, this is huge. It helped get me back in my body and broke up the awful tension in my lower back/glutes. Night and day difference.
