  And it has like just gotted worse... came home to her wrapping her arm in some cloth to warm it up... Anyone has any idea what might be coursing this almost long term pain and what methods r recommeneded to help alleviate or solve the problem?
  
  Was actually thinking about tie da/tui na.. but i do not know if it will work or not.. and i do not know where i can find a good shi fu to work on mom's problem..
  
  Any recommendations anyone? Would be greatly appreciated.

  If warmth doesn't help the pain, she will need to see a doctor. Since you prefer a Chinese one, tui na would be good if she has just injured the muscles. The doctor would know whether she has hurt her muscles or not by asking a series of questions and some simple checkup. Otherwise, she has to go accupunture. I went for both when I had a sprain. It's effective, maybe because I'm young. For tui na, initially it will be painful, after that the next few days will be very relaxing. If it doesn't work, see a western doctor.
