... Unfortunately I'm waiting for a pinched nerve to leave my arm.
As I type I can't feel my left pinky nor that half of the palm. It's
been two weeks now and very hard to type.
Can't someone massage it back to normalcy for you?

I wish it were that simple. The last time this happened my
chiropractor (and physical therapist) had to use ultra sound to free
the nerve. It's pretty much up my shoulder now, so I have an
appointment Friday to see if they can fix it.
Otherwise doing fine other then wanting to install the MRC mod on my
BBS but finding it too tough to type without frustration, and now
pain. SO just hanging out reading posts and lurking which isn't as
fun as participating in conversation.

But a friend of ours had a dairy farm and much larger runs of fence to look after.... I accidently belted myself with that one once... My entire arm was numb from finger tips into the shoulder, I had this great adrenaline chrome metal taste in my mouth for about an hour afterwards. This was without super grounding so I'm scared to imagine what i might be like barefoot.
Last time I had a energiser out was to keep the dog off the vege garden... worked a treat of course.. until the kids hooked it up to the trampoline and all sorts of odd capers.
I think I'd rather take Colagen or B vitamins for arthritis or nerve
pain than grab a power fence. Full disclosure, thsoe are the flagship producs of a store I operate, because so much people suffers arthrosis
and nerve damage.
My Diana just pushes another horse against the fence until the fence breaks, or waits until the battery fails to break the fence. She is
too clever for her own good.

We used to call them sanders :)

relaxed muscles. Power tools like sanders and saws are a much different thing. Regular power tools stress the muscles because you have to actually contract the muscles to use the tools.
Wow. I never heard of cases like that. Maybe the fence had a fault.
That sounds nasty.
Are you talking about the tension machine where it pulls on your
neck and feet?
No, this is where he puts sticky pads on you and hooks it up to a
machine that delivers a mild electrical shock which constricts &
eventually fatigues the muscle.
I don't know that I've seen the machine you're talking about, but I'm picturing a medieval stretching machine. I've always thought that
could actually feel good up to a point.
upside down. It felt very good to just let your own weight stretch your back and relax. Add to that upside-down sittups, and you have a decent workout.

That does sound kind of relaxing. Though don't you get
headaches or other issues from being inverted?
I suppose it might just be me, but there are many times when
I struggle with doing Yoga because downward-facing-dog
(among others) is just not a pleasant stance to stay in.
Apologies.. It seems that I failed to notice that you asked me a
question.
Hanging upside down, the first time, is a bit of a blood rush (or pool)
to the head, and that can feel strange. But the idea is to just hang upside down for a
few minutes to gain the benefit of the stretch.
