My hands grow cold and feel like pins and needles after a deep tissue massage. Does anyone know why?

I have carpel tunnel and bulding disk, but no spinal cord injuries or pinched nerves. Is this normal after a massage with my condtions? The massages really help my back.My hands grow cold and feel like pins and needles after a deep tissue massage. Does anyone know why?
The pins and needles feeling can be a nerve response from the work that you receive. With carpal tunnel syndrome, it is common that a person has developed a few areas of nerve impingement or entrapment from the neck to the wrist on the affected side. A bulging disc anywhere in the lower cervical spine (neck) can help lead to these symptoms. If your therapist does not already do this, then ask her/him to give attention to these muscles: sternocleidomastoid, anterior scalenes, pectoralis major and minor, biceps brachii and pronator teres. If your therapist already spends some time in these areas then you should complement the work with daily stretching in the same areas. If, however, your therapist does not know these muscles or how to specifically work with them, then it is time to find a new therapist.My hands grow cold and feel like pins and needles after a deep tissue massage.

e all have stress in our lives relating to work, family, environment and society. Mental tensions, frustration and insecurity are among the most damaging. Affected by stress, the heart works harder, muscles tense up, breathing can become rapid and shallow - all body processes are degraded. Work stress is the most common complaint amongst city workers.
