NEWS Injury Update: Alex Glenn

[McHunt]

There is some small evidence for tendinopathies but deep tissue acupuncture has about as much evidence to it as wearing a yellow hat on Thursdays to cure spinal cord injuries. Not sure of Glenn's strain but if it's at or near the hamstring tendons it may help, or if it's not I can lend him my yellow hat too.

Not a doctor: but I would think anything (legal) that induced relaxation of spasming muscles would be beneficial regardless of the pathway.

Wrong color for Thursdays mate. Yellow is for Tuesdays!

I haven't read too much into his injury, has he had spasms? Muscle spasms in an otherwise healthy person tend to be from dehydration or overuse. If it works for him, great, but he should probably just drink more water...

I think you might be confusing spasms with cramps. Spasms are like when you "jink" your back and it takes a while to stop grabbing. In my case, it's usually a quad playing up.

There is quite a bit of scientific evidence backing it up in Chinese, take that with a grain of salt though.

Prayer may also be effective.

You heard the man, BHQ. Start praying for Lexi’s hamstrings, ya damn heathens!

I regularly use float tanks. Nothing better for switching off and relaxing.

They were banging on the door for 15mins last time I went to one of them, just went full coma.

also, your balls floating is a bit weird too.

Why are you talking about Wolfie’s balls?

These float tanks certainly have some psychedelic effects, but that's next level. You sure it wasn't Carrigan's balls still hanging around from @Wolfie 's dream in that tank?
