Thing about massage. Often, usually, where the pain seems to be before, is not where it actually came from. Sore in all kinds of new and exciting places. More about information, digging out where the damage actually is hiding. Using ice and capsaisin rub, and moving as much as possible.
Did the tests in order to get the discount on my health insurance. Although just over the line, I am, yes, overweight. Need to get the pain down enough to exercise enough to get the weight down. Five to ten pounds will do it, and I have no desire to do more. Too many years watching my mother obsess and starve and yo-yo to ever indulge in that pathology. But I need to move more. Way too soon to start this slide. Must find a way that doesn't get the back and butt to flare up and stop all movement.
Walk or die. Not just a threat, a reality.

Yes, massage is kind of like the character in that Shakespeare history -- Henry V? -- who roams around the field duelling and killing decoy kings till he finally finds the real one.
Massage is good. Are you having Soft Tissue Release treatment?
My sports physio friend swears by this...it is the only treatment she can give to riders between events during track racing, as deep massage can relax and work the muscles too much.
I can vouch for its efficacy!!
