Do you get massage?

i have been a "victim" at one of the schools. it went well. my friend that is a great mt got me to go in and have a couple done because they were running low on "victims". no problems at all.

i've been on the other end with beauty school and glad i had "victims" to work on.

Hi.

I love massages. I get them as a gift for myself after each triathlon. I think that as hard as you work you body massage is a non pharmaceutical way to aid recovery.

I don't know what others would consider to be "regular massages" but I got my first massage last weekend and have an appointment for another one this weekend. My legs were getting soooo tight from running that I was afraid I'd injure myself with bad form, or I wouldn't be able to finish a long run, or both. It helped loosen things up, but other muscles have been pulling kind of funny since then so I'm getting a second one in hopes of getting things more stable.

Some people like to get massages for a special indulgence, but for me they're more of a treatment to correct a problem. Part of that is because they're expensive and I indulge on other things (bike stuff, etc.!), but right now while I'm preparing for a half marathon, they're well worth the money.
