Experiences with

Massage

im struggling with getting active again which is why I hoped a massage may help. I have quite bad spondylitis and my neck muscles are very painful and hard which I was hoping a massage would help.

What timescale after such a heart event is it safe to have a fully body massage at a spa?

I enjoyed the massage a lot, so it'd be a shame to have to stop going for them.

So I'm 3 years in with PMR and have reduced down to 2mgs of prednisone, albeit with a little discomfort which I'm prepared to put up with rather than all the side effects of the corticosteroid So, I'm booked for a holiday next month which includes a complimentary massage but because I'm not used to them

I’m currently having a migraine , I can’t get rid of the pain , I’ve tried Metacarbamol, paracetamol ,codien, breathing and meditation finger tip massage and it hasn’t helped … I really need suggestions

Obviously I wouldn’t want my chest massages but I wonder if the pressure on a back massage might also not be a good idea? Thank you for any feedback.

I'm a fellow fibro sufferer too and was wondering if anyone has tried using a massage chair to help with the pain and stiffness. Any recommendations would be welcome. Thank you.

I am also doing physio to help with my ankle.I just wondered if anyone can recommend any therapies that also help (like massage or acupuncture)? Thanks.

Hi has anyone purchased massage devices to help with restless legs. If so can anyone give me any experiences with brands etc. They are just so expensive and don't want to throw my money away if they don't workMany thanks in advance

The study compared the efficacy of different non-pharmacological interventions for sleep disorders in patients with PD, and results suggest that massage therapy may be the preferred non-pharmacological intervention for improving sleep disorders in PD, followed by music therapy and treadmill training

Maybe a massage? Any suggestions gratefully received.

My physio has treated it with massage and ultrasound several times without much success and said I'd probably benefit from a steroid injection, so I've made an appointment to have this done at my GP surgery.

I had a massage yesterday and it was the lowest it’s ever been last night but it’s back this morning. I’m can’t cope with it 🥺

I have NEVER had a massage of any kind from anyone in my lifetime. This just feels yuck. kind of pointless and expensive.

Tried ice pack, heat, massage, wrapping my legs. Does this ever end? Have an appointment with b a local nureolgist but probably will not keep as he will have old ideas?

Any ideas whether it's safe to use a small massage gun to relieve pain in Hips suffering from Arthritis? Tried out for very short time one that our son-in-law had, it seemed great. I don't suffer with bleeding, no bad response to blood tests or surgical removals of cells on hands and face.

Then another one in Jan this year and one yesterday triggered by a back massage !! I'm prescribed Bisoprolol.

Conscious of warnings given here in this Community about the risks of deep massage when on anti-coagulants, I've had lightish massages a couple of times a month with beneficial effects. But 24 hours after a massage on March 6 I had flushed and itching skin, hives and a pounding heart for an hour.

PF stretch and massage combo: sitting, take one foot and massage foot arch whilst pulling up toes. ☆ 2. PF massage using tennis ball / spiky ball [i][/i] [i]I continue doing these, and my feet have never looked better!

Earlier he used to get a massage done sometimes which he had put on hold after diagnosis. any opinions if it’s ok to do if it’s a light pressure massage ?
