ITS COMMON TO BE SORE AFTER A MASSAGE
A good quality massage leaves you feeling warm and relaxed, while at the same time rejuvenated and full of life. You may even experience one of the best nights of sleep you have ever had.
On the following morning, however it can be a different story. The muscles ache and feel sore as if you did a full body workout rather than a full body massage. It is easy to begin panicking and assume something is wrong. It is more likely, however, that the massage has done exactly what your massage therapist intended.
Your muscles will often respond with some soreness.
The soreness should only last a maximum of two days. If the soreness lasts any longer, then it is possible that the massage was too intense. The key to getting the intensity level right is good communication between therapist and client. The therapist will adjust the intensity and as the body adjusts to the manipulation, the intensity can be increased to allow the same benefits to be felt.
