I was trying to figure out if massages are helpful. I work out about 4-5 days a week. After a couple weeks, my back gets tight and knotty. I usually take a couple days off. but that tightness sometimes persists. I hear that massages may help, but its like $40 for a half hour. Does anyone know if they may be able to help, or if there is another cost-efective remedy? Thanks!

Every sport demands that the player attains specific postures; so, each sport tends to strain the muscles at certain predictable points. Sports massage can help heal strained muscles and allow healthy ones to reach peak action and to maintain it, with less risk of injury.

Plus it relieves stress!!! Massage, with the right masseuse, is worth every penny!
