I finally had a sports massage today. I've never had one before but my muscles on my right side around my shoulder are so tight that it was causing pain due to a really old injury and I just couldn't take it anymore. The therapist said what I pretty much knew, I had exceptionally tight muscles. I wasn't sure if I should do self-massage with a massage ball that I have or what because it always felt so painful, but he advised me to do just that.
Now after every session, it'll be SMR for me and a bunch of stretches to help loosen everything off.
For anyone who doesn't know what a sports massage is, it's basically a really deep (and often painful) massage to help loosen up tight muscles, heal old muscular injuries and so on.
I've booked in for another session in 2 weeks time. Looking forward to it!
I'm glad you we're able to get this and it was very helpful. Enjoy more of them when you go.

"Dance is your pulse, your heartbeat,
It’s the rhythm
of your life.
It’s the expression
in time and movement,
in happiness, joy, sadness and envy.
-Jacques d’Ambroise''
Sounds worth it, even if it is painful! Seems like a relief.
Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
