Did it hurt bad Guns? When I get massages I can't stop grimacing during lol

my wife and others have had it done and say it doesnt hurt to bad and is only uncomfortable. my big ass has a pretty good pain tolerance and i thought it hurt like a *****. i thought i was going to pass out when she did my ribs, obliques, arm pit and tail bone. i personally think that during the session it is brutal but once she gets done i have zero pain at all. my wife did it and was like yeah it was uncomfortable but not that bad at all. i guess i am a puss

now i will say every session after the first one was far far less painful even though she was digging deeper but the ribs and obliques still hurt like hell

She was very gentle and it didn't hurt a bit well she did it but I have some seriously tight traps and my wrists are pretty bad either tendinitis or the senovis is what she thought it swells and I get like a cist that pops out on the other side so it makes sense to me not to mention the Carple bones. It feels good during the day beside the normal soreness from lack of flexibility. I think it is helping but only time will tell.

that's weird man. she should have pretty much broke you off while you were on the table and it be painful then. then aftwards no pain at all. you are ass backwards haha. idk, i didnt have my lower arm done but i have done the traps tri bi and elbow and it hurt like hell. traps were a little tender but the elbow and tri stung pretty good.

i will get back to you on your other predicamnet later on today also haha, you freak

TweetHahah all good. I tolerate pain well though and used to regularly get lms where my acupuncturist wpuld put needles like 1 inch deep into my forearm and traps now that shit hurts.
Either way if it helps it's a good thing.
Cheers

Had chronic issues with low back and hip pain. Done PT and stretch, roll, etc. about everyday to keep it feeling good. You think this would help with this issue. This is a 5 year old issue.

Probably my wrists a screwed from being a heavy duty mechanic for 10 years. I got massage, acupuncture regularly but stopped getting them when I quit my job bc no benefits and it really started to flare up. Since 3 treatments which I'm a mess for a few days after my wrist is more flexible and even smaller I can see the tip tendon again it is weird lime all the years of build up fluid and whatever else is flushing out of it...
