massages

I am looking into starting to use a massage therapist again. I have done this before since my body is shot, and wore out. I have been dealing with muscle cramps for the last few months where they wake me up 4-5 times a night to the point of having to walk to get them under control. Nothing like walking 3-5 minutes,4-5 times a night to screw your sleep up.
I found a gal on Craigslist who does deep tissue massage and a Swedish nuru massage which is a nude massage with a gel and the whole body is used for the massage instead of the hands. It does sound relaxing and tempting but I am not sure it would work on my cramps and soreness. Hopefully it will work out and not be like most of the spam on Craigslist.
Have a great day everyone.

 I see a chiropractor who does soft adjustments. His treatment starts with his assistant massaging the cramp/knots out using pressure points and then he loosens the joints with his soft adjustments. Find this dual approach works the best for me

I used to go to a chiropractor pretty regular, she has 3-4 gals doing massages but they have a 4-6 waiting list. I have not been having any problems with my back but I am sure it would not hurt. Thanks for the advice I will keep it in mind.

    What you can look for is a the school where they learn...its super cheap,and many students to choose from. I've been getting massages for years,and once they get to know your body, and your body responds well to massage, you will feel a million bucks!!! You have to learn to relax first,and let go....and with your issues,I'm sure they can work out the tension in your muscles. Drink more water!!!
I had not thought of that, it sounds like a good idea. I have been drinking close to two gallons of water a day, plus Gatorade. So far this seems like another bust on a massage. It started raining and she was supposed to come out. But I just got a text and she put it off until this afternoon or evening. It seems like on here and Craigslist in this area no one follows thru with plans. Have a great day.

    I am sure you have done the bananas etc. for cramps I would suggest a regular masseuse. there are plenty in the area that come to you. make sure you are doing plenty of stretching, yoga. good luck
Yep I eat the heck out of bananas, 2-3 a day. I was finally able to get a massage and boy did she ever work the kinks out. She was real strong and used alot of pressure. I could feel the soreness being pushed out of the muscles ahead of her hands. I felt so good that later that day I tore something in my shoulder, I heard it pop as I lifted a small deck I had built.

I tend to agree with you, but the gentle hands may not works the knots out. Ha ha, but dang it would be worth a try.

I have done alright on buying and selling, but the personal ads seem to be 95% spam, and the ones who aren't spam are about like here, all show and no go. This gal did work out and really worked the soreness and tightness out of my body. Well worth 60 dollars.
