Mary Jo was treated by medical staff volunteer for sports medicine, Dr. Michael Kennedy for Mary Jo's neck pain during the Susan G. Komen 3 Day last week. A lot of lifting and sleeping in tents for three days was hard on Mary Jo (and me). After Mary Jo's very first treatment on Saturday afternoon at the event, she was so pleased with the results that she has been scheduling sessions with the same doctor Kennedy of kinesiology or Chiropractic Kinesiolgist. The practice of Kinesiology is the assessment of movement, performance, and function; and the rehabilitation, prevention, and management of disorders to maintain, rehabilitate, and enhance movement, performance, and function in the areas of sport, recreation, work, exercise, and general activities of daily living. Mary Jo received her 4th post event adjustment today and is very happy to be getting some pain relief without the use of more medicine. Mary Jo is looking forward to her last Herceptin (biologic chemo) session at Dr Galls office of Minnesota Oncology on Thursday. This milestone in her cancer treatment will mark the very last treatment in her 52 weeks of chemo therapy treatments.
