Thomas:

When you are able to move some, go to the gym or use a TotalGym type thing and do seated rows at light weight. If you can't do that just sit on the floor and try to touch your feet. This exercise helped me recover from a bad car wreck a few years ago. I am looking at getting a Mystere 4.3

Hope this helps.
