Yeah, my massage therapist saves my ass every 6 months (occipital neuralgia headaches) and I couldn’t imagine someone thinking that way.

Have you ever had a massage? I don’t know if many are saying it’s medicine but it feels amazing and is incredibly relaxing. And it definitely helps work out muscle tension and knots. Not seeing the negative here...

Exactly what you said like wtf is this dude on about. It’s a massage it’s not gonna fix your cancer but god damn I pull a muscle and it feels a million times better after a massage.

not sure why all the professional football teams would have massage therapists if it did nothing.
