Guest guest Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 Kristi, I was told that it would cleanse out the toxins released in the muscles, but my massage therapist also told me also that you would be very sore if you didn't drink the water. The reason being they have stirred up the toxins and released lactic acid in your muscles just like lactic acid is released when you exercise. She told me that I would feel like it worse than the sorest I'd been after exercise. All I know is what she told me and she is a licensed massage therapist who has been practicing for 17 years.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Kristy, Did you drink water after the massage? Sundra A Christmas Letter by: Lil Ole Me Tube from shares November,04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Kristy, I'm not a big water drinker. My massage therapist told me to drink a gallon a day. I have a hard time drinking one glass. When I went back she said she could tell that I had not been drinking the water by the way my muscles felt. Now that I am also going to this holistic treatment center, they are also pushing that I drink a gallon of water a day. They asked me on my second visit if I had been drinking my water and I couldn't lie, I had to say no. The massages I get from the massage therapist, the holistic medical center, and PT are all very different. My massage therapist does deep tissue massage on bare skin with lotion which includes face, scalp, arms, hand, neck, back, stomach, legs and feet , the holistic medical center does pressure point massage on the back and neck through your clothes, and the PT does massage on the neck and back on bare skin with lotion. What kind of massage did you get? hugs, Sundra A Christmas Letter by: Lil Ole Me Tube from shares November,04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Kristy, I am glad that massage is helping you. I noticed this morning that my neck is not as tight since I had treatment on Monday even though I had head to toe aching yesterday. That was probably because my day was busy on Monday and I stayed up most of the night at the ER with my soon. I doubt it had to do with my treatment. My usual pain in the lumbar area is on the right. Weird, but I started hurting in my left back/leg/foot last night as well as my left pelvic area. Maybe things are just shifting around in there. Speaking of treatments, I've got to get going in a minute. My treatment is at 8:00. I wasn't wondering at all why you were up. I just woke up extremely early today myself. I'll probably need a nap later though. I hope that you get the rest you need when you do lie back down though.
