I used to feel better after massage when ME was still mild. Now with mod/severe ME it doesn't help much anymore. PT massaged stiff back several times, but it did not loosen my muscles like it used to. Also my lower back exercises don't really have effect, while PT says i'm doing them right. Stretching does help, though only temporarily. Probably all because I don't move my body to keep it supple - obviously.

Wanted to update that i found a PT who's massages do help. She's known as a tough masseuse, it hurts like hell. But it works.
