I just got back from paying the equivalent of $4 to have an hour-long nap under a heat lamp in the doctor's office. The only time I woke up during this hour, was when the nurse came to change the 4 vibrating suction cups on my back for 20 acupuncture needles, and then again to change the acupuncture needles to a heating pad. What a way to spend the morning. I was as snug as a pin-cushioned-bug-in-a-rug. When nap time was over, the nurses all smiled and giggled at me as I roused from my slumber, rubbing my eyes and feeling dopey as if coming out of a hibernation. I think I may be the only foreigner who frequents the clinic. My visit was clearly both my and their entertainment for the day. Two weeks of this is supposed to clear up my mess of a trapezius and supraspinatus that are apparently knotted like a bad macramé project.
