Massage

Has anyone been in more pain after a nassage? I thought a massage was suppose to relax you and work out the knots. Instead I felt worse for about 3 days. After that I was back to my "normal" tense self. Any thoughts?

I had my first round of physical therapy yesterday and it included soft tissue massage and it definitely made me feel worse! Not sure why though :confused:

I agree it massage is painful, not sure why maybe because I can’t relax enough for it to work.
