Re: Massaged myself, pain this morning- Toxins??

[Guest guest]

Debra, I had a deep tissue massage at 12:30 yesterday, on the way

home stopped at a bagel shop to get a sandwich. For whatever reason,

I did not eat anything before I left for the massage nor did I eat

after the stop at the bagel shop. But I did make another stop where

I got a bag of the jellie bellies -- had a craving for jelly beans

and that was the closest thing they had. Small bag, really was an

individual size. Then after being home for a bit, I made a small

peanut butter sandwich. Well, some time after eating that sandwich,

I was running to the bathroom about every 10 minutes (2nd time I

wasn't quite fast enough!) I finally shut the computer down and went

upstairs to lay down as I could get to bathroom more quickly. Also

checked everywhere I could thing to look for some med to stop it but

could only find stool softener. Called dh at work and asked that he

bring me some home. This started between 3 and 4 and I was still

going to the bath room as late as 10pm -- can't tell you how much I

took of the Immodium. Even called cousin who had had a colonoscopy

earlier in the week and said she could try my method, but I still

don't know what triggered it. seldom does any work around my

stomach/lower adomin and I did feel much better when I got home and

no bad effects to day, except that I am going back upstairs as I am

still feeling as if I could start going again!

But there have been times when I have had a massage and do feel worse

afterwords --- be sure you drink a lot of water to flush the toxins

out.

bucks that is called a Shiatsu vest massager. You put it on and it

has built in massage things in it. I also lay on it sometimes and

position for my lower back too. It says you can do that. Anyway, I

used it last night, then I took this other massager I have that is by

homedics and it is really a powerful massager. I put the handheld

massager up on my knot areas in my upper back. It gave me a deep

massage ... especially after I used the vest.

> This morning I was hurting beyond belief. I think it is true that

deep massage releases toxins. I guess I should drink a bunch of

water today. My whole body is feeling even worse kind of like the

toxins have been let loose.

> Debra, YOU MUST drink a lot of water to flush those toxins out! As

someone has been getting deep tissue massages for 10 or more years,

each therapist has sent me out the door with a bottle of water and

instructions to keep drinking water. And I had a massage on

Wednesday which was very good --- not as many knots as a massage she

gave me a month or so ago. I think I posted that I wanted to scream

while she was working on those knots between my vertebrae but what I

found amazing was that I saw her either the next week or two weeks

later and I thought she was not really do really deep massage on me!

The answer was simple, she had gotten ride of the knots the last

time. This week there were a few but I had another problem but I

don't think that was related to the massage.

I think I have also posted many times, if you can find a way to yell

at the pain while you are getting the massage, it's amazing how much

pain you can release that way!!! Find your own phrase, Jackie had me

tell the pain " it's been a nice visit, but it's time for you to

go!! " I guess you could think of it as my late father-in-law used to

say about fish and house guests smelling after three days! The pain

is a visitor that you just want to go OUT THE DOOR ASAP!!!

Oh, and I do sometimes feel worse after deep tissue but that usually

goes away in a pretty short time (next day may be bad, but I think

that is the toxins working.
