The physiotherapy session lasted until afternoon. The sun had begun to set when she's done. Shi Nian worked up quite a lot of sweat. Her back was soaked and her hair was sticking to her face. There was a healthy flush on her cheeks and her eyes were a lot brighter.
In this session, she stepped into the next level after the doctor examined that she was quite ready. She started to jog, it was a slow walk in the beginning and after twenty minutes, the speed increased a bit into speed walk, until the end, she had started to run for five minutes before stopping.
The therapist guided her down the treadmill and took down her speed and time. "Very good. You healed very fast, girl."
She beamed brightly at the compliment.
Her breath was harsh and she had almost collapsed on the bench when she stopped.
The therapist prohibited her from lying down and gave her an aid on how to guide her breath. Shi Nian followed the step earnestly and she felt herself calming down afterwards.
