It’s common to feel relaxed, tired, or even sore after a massage. This happens because muscles are being worked by the massage therapist. After a massage, it may feel similar to completing a workout. In some cases, a headache or nausea may occur.

Some people believe massage must hurt to be effective, but a massage does not need to be painful to provide benefits. If the massage therapist is applying too much pressure, lighter pressure can be requested. Occasionally, a sensitive spot in a muscle may feel like a knot and can be uncomfortable while being worked out. If it becomes painful, it’s important to speak up. Most serious problems occur due to excessive pressure during a massage.
