But that's how I know they did a good job working out the knots and loosening my muscles. I WANT to be sore the next day. Because once that soreness goes away, I feel 100x better. </p> <p>I like massages that hurt afterwards, though. I only tend to go when I'm really tight/knotted up and I want someone to work those suckers out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-have-pain-after-a-massage#post-591258 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 10:03:19 +0000 Alivoo01 591258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like @kentuckygirl: said, it just depends on how much deep tissue they do. Since she said you had a bunch of knots and was really tight, I'm guessing she did some work on you to loosen it up. Drinking lots of water will help flush out the toxins/lactic acid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-have-pain-after-a-massage#post-590664 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 21:31:56 +0000 Boopers 590664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've had a few massages (not prenatal) and have been sore after each one! Not just in my shoulders but in my feet and calves too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-have-pain-after-a-massage#post-590572 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 20:28:49 +0000 kentuckygirl 590572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends on how deep tissue the massage therapist gets. I typically don't mind getting a little sore either, although sometimes I prefer a more relaxing massage. It does help to drink lots of water afterward. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-have-pain-after-a-massage#post-590566 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 20:24:55 +0000 SleepyMonkey 590566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I like feeling sore after my massages. It makes me feel like my muscles really got loosened up and I got money's worth! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-have-pain-after-a-massage#post-590455 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 19:00:13 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 590455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! Lots of pain. And I felt sick for three days after my first prenatal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-have-pain-after-a-massage#post-590454 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 18:59:20 +0000 lomom 590454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a prenatal massage yesterday and she really worked on my shoulders. She kept commenting that they were really knotted up and tight. Today they are a little sore. I'd had a few massages before this one and I had no pain afterwards so I was kinda surprised to wake up with sore shoulders. </p>
