I’ve found that it’s possible for your muscles to rebound from too much massage and tighten up even more. Addressing a knot and moving on is sometimes better. Stretching an area that is tight and holding it steady for about 90 seconds can cause a muscle to release. After letting it rest you can try the stretch and hold again. I’ve also found that sometimes just lightly placing my fingers onto a tight muscle and holding it there will be enough to stimulate release.

Good luck.

Yes it's fibro knots
Very painful

Yes, I felt like I was drunk all the time I was taking it. When I stopped I discovered that I had spilled coffee all over the place. It hadn't really helped.

I get those too. Sometimes Tiger Balm patches warm or cold help a lot. Menthol too. But yes, it's unbearable the pain. It does help too sometimes to hold a pose to stretch the knot, even when it's painful, and release, and repeat until the muscle relaxes. For me, it doesn't last too long in relaxation mode, it's sad how I got used to just being tense and hyperalert all the time. Tramadol used to help, but it's a very tricky drug so I would not recommend it .
