So you massage all these things are generally probably helping because they're moving that stuff out edema most specifically . So pressure comes off of those nerve endings in the muscle spindles and allows you to stop receiving that signal of pain . Despite the fact that you didn't actually regenerate tissue at all yet .
So we have this immune response happening and inflammation then all of a sudden we start getting fluid accumulation . And now there are what are called noor and you're probably very , obviously you're very familiar with these and these are your pain receptors . What's actually interesting is we don't necessarily know a lot of information about how many pain receptors are in muscle .
And so much like anything else , when we're in this idea of pain , it's not a 1 to 1 explanation . There are multiple factors that are probably causing your perception of pain . Muscle damage can be one of them .
And now there are what are called noor and you're probably very , obviously you're very familiar with these and these are your pain receptors . What's actually interesting is we don't necessarily know a lot of information about how many pain receptors are in muscle . They're not really in the belly .
Well , one theory that's been put forward regarding muscle damage is that the pressure is actually being applied to those nerve endings of the muscle spindles . And that's actually responsible for the pain signal that's going back and coming up to your brain . And you're registering that as pain rather than it is actually in the , the contractile units .
