darkfyre_museUgh post massage toxic purge
Got a much needed overdue massage yesterday.
I really need to keep up with these so that maybe occasionally I can have one that is relaxing and spa like. Instead of a chiropractic adjustment. I have a serious love-hate thing going on here. Since I retain most of my stress physically I need to get a massage at least every two weeks to stay healthy and pain free. Every week is better. Since it has been more than a month most of the session was spent on my shoulders and upper back. My massage therapist is quite skilled in releasing stress and realigning my neck. It is usually closer to sport or deep massage than relaxing Swedish.
The consequence of all this is a rather uncomfortable massage followed by 24 hours of feeling icky because releasing the muscles also means releaseing a painful number of toxins into my system. And I am never, it seems, hydrated enough to purge them rapidly.
