After many years of abuse followed by long periods of unuse and heading into my mid 40's I am dealing with a difficulty in regaining the level of flexibility I once knew. I am sure in large part to adhesions that have developed and entrenched themselves. Most specifically in my adductors in the adductor canal region (groin area).
This has also, I believe, entrapped my Saphenous nerve. That's a self-diagnosis based on my own research on the web, but I believe it to be what I'm dealing with.
I stretch religiously and compared to most I'm still pretty flexible, but nowhere near where I used to be. My "cold" flexibility is where I feel the most frustrated as after I've warmed up and stretched out for a bit I'm ok (but not where I'd like to be)
I can't really afford massage or chiropractic therapy right now. any suggestions as to what I can do on my own?
