Experiences with

Massage

I have gone to acupuncture, Various massage treatment. It took me 5 years to finally get into Rhumatalogy ,As my bloods never showed anything, neither did my Xrays. When i finally got to Rheumatolgy i didnt even get to see a Rhumatalogist, I saw a Physio of Rhumatology Dept.

Been really rough for me getting all stress out as everyone knows brings horrible symptoms,but i was reading about massage therapist it sounds awesom im n nebr.but has anyone had this and will insurance pay for one?

At last I've found a gp who listens & is helpful, knew more about pmr than the other one who told me to massage myself with almond oil!!!

I saw my GP, several counselors, a psychiatric, a holistic MD, tried several antidepressants and anti anxiety meds, tried massage, acupuncture, meditation, etc, etc. I had a constant feeling of terror even though I was medically fine and had a great life.

but otherwise manageable, I was having a salt bath this morning & noticed a firm lump, it's about the size of a large pea, just below the cut line on the top left side (my knob is twisted around in the pic to get a better angle so it's the lower swelling, it's been there for a several days as i would massage

Also using a tennis ball to try and massage and break up the knots. I Iwas diagnosed two years ago with scleroderma. Yes I see a rheumatologist and on medication for it. Does anybody else have this symptom?

My taichi master helped massage and crack my spine and I felt better instantly, but not for long. Does anyone use massage/chiropractics?

I'm wondering if any of you know the 5-minute belly massage instructions that you can get from the Christie? I saw it mentioned in their booklet "Your Guide to Coping with bowel Obstructions." If anyone could share, I'd appreciate knowing how to do this! Thanks so much.

I would love to massage it out, but I cant let anyone touch it at this point. Anyone have any quick cures? Bananas aren't working either.

Nursing a bit of a niggle with the soleus but sports massage guy is looking after it for me and doing plenty of stretching to keep it from going from niggle to injury. And unfortunately, had to slow the pace from 7 minutes to 8.5 minutes.

It was painful and she kept apologising but I told her to carry on as this needed sorting I’d got to the stage where I didn’t care any longer this had to come out . 30 minutes of massage of the rectum and she wanted me to start pushing oh my god I was pushing she was massaging and it eventually happened

Said a few choice words to Rocky and gave him a good massage. He rewarded me with a gurgle and pain. More jollop arrived with questions about my bowel during the night. Nothing to tell. Did I want morphine for the pain? No, I don't thanks. They must have over ordered.

This morning I've had some massage, ultrasound and, as you can see, she's taped up the tendon. I've got some strengthening exercises to do and the good news is that she says I can go for a short run on Saturday.

v=y6ex3QWdg_c It feels really good if you do the exercise with a spiky massage ball. I personally like exercises that I can do anywhere, anytime including when I sit at my desk working. And it always feels better when I stay connected with my body.

Rest and ice and massage for few days definitely no jogging.... Damn you over 40s!

I have seen several neurologists, had injections in my head, tried gabapentin, lyrica, several different pain meds, massage therapy, but no relief. Anyone else suffer like this? Thanks..

No answers except more painkillers & massage myself with almond oil, which is about as useful as putting a teaspoon of something in the ocean! I cannot get my next rheumatologist appt until end of November!

She suggested me to go for( http://www.physiomobility.com/relaxation-massage.html) this relaxation massage therapy which reduces stress and increases blood pressure. Does anyone here has done this therapy before? If yes please share your experience.

After my Thai massage reward and 1 week off consolidating I feel absolutely lost!!?!? I didn’t know what to do so I did my first 30min non stop on a cross trainer at the gym. I covered 5k in 35min - surely that not same as running??? Felt easier though.
