Unbearable shooting/throbbing neck, head and back pain after a deep tissue massage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Drink Water: Take an anti-inflammatory like Ibuprofen or a medicine like acetaminophen. And try taking something cold from the freezer, wrapping in a towel and place it on the areas that hurt, 10 min on, 10 min off. Good luck.
