Hi Megan,
I saw your blog and wanted to write because I too had the excruciating tendonitis pain you had. I couldn’t lift a coffee cup or pick up a file off my desk at work. I went to a specialist and he prescribed lots of physical therapy which was too time consuming (not to mention expensive) for me. I was taking a Bikram class and when the Salabhasana posture came to turn our arms under our body I thought this was one posture I was going to have to sit out due to the pain. My teacher said this is actually the posture I needed to get relief, so I endured. Lo and behold, my arm felt better that night and I couldn’t believe it. I started using Bikram as my “physical therapy” and my pain started to go away. I have no tendonitis pain at all to this day. This is the exact experience which made me a true believer in Bikram. I know everyone’s different, but I wish a similar experience for you. I hope you get the pain relief you need.
Namaste,
brew
