Do you have knots in your muscles? 

Muscle knots are small, bump-like areas of muscle that can be painful to the touch. They can grow almost anywhere on the body where muscle or fascia is present. If you contract, compress, or stretch a muscle with knots, they can be painful and are often called trigger points because they can direct pain to areas further away from the knot. These kinds of trigger points often go unnoticed unless squeezed directly, while active trigger points involve baseline pain patterns with persistent pain, fatigue, and a feeling of numbness.

Are you experiencing muscle fatigue or tension? 

Muscle tension after exertion is the term given to a complete or partial tear of muscle fibres, muscle fascia or tendons, therefore essentially anything related to muscle structure. This is different from a sprain, a tear in the ligaments or joint capsules, which are different types of muscle tissue. It is also different from a stretched muscle which is a muscle spasm. Very briefly, tendons attach muscles to bones, and a tear is called a strain, while ligaments attach bones to bones, and a tear is called a sprain. If you have a new stress injury that is a few days old, you need to rest. Anti-inflammatory pain relievers, high-dose fish oil, or curcumin can help control the pain. Ice and compresses can also relieve pain and swelling if present. It is, therefore, necessary to wait for a little before being treated by a therapeutic massage therapist. At first, we can only help you relax the muscles around the injury, not the injury itself. After a few days, it is important to seek treatment from an experienced therapist who properly assesses the tension before treating it. If a therapist treats you too aggressively, it can make your injury worse and delay your recovery, not to mention causing you unnecessary pain.

Since every joint has a bursa, these two conditions often go hand in hand. Some people think that pain is a sign that something bad is going on in their bodies. But it’s not always the case. Tendinitis and bursitis can cause temporary pain and discomfort, but they usually don’t cause long-term damage and rarely require surgery. Take tendonitis and bursitis for what they are: overuse injuries common and easily treated with therapeutic massage.
