I have a simular issue with traveling.. however, I have several medical problems one of them being walking.
Like most of use here I am getting the necessary medical treatment. Not enough to really solve the problem. So I keep doing my exercises and whatever else I am suppose to do. I receive SSDI several years ago as the point was "unbearable"

MFR is a special training that the therapies has to qualify for.

Also Have you heard of Myofascial Release

Yes I've tried tens. My back won't allow it anymore 😒

Hi Tired; There are tmes when my entire neck and arm and half my spine hurts wicked badly
BUT there ARE trigger points, perhaps you can concentrate on the trigger points and have ice packs as a back up to the ice.
I am so sorry that you have not found a modality that helps you yet...have you tried a T.E.N.S. unit
Hang in there Tired there are those thinking of you
