I cant tell you how much deep tissue massage has helped me, for many years, to keep going and to avoid other medical treatments.
Without it Id be in constant pain.
I have one of these massagers and it also helps a lot:
You can find them for about $35.
That thing looks medieval! Since both of my arms hurt, I think it would hurt the other arm to try to use it. I did try to give myself massages and it felt really good for the arm getting it, but it wiped out the other one. Thats why I decided to go professional.
What would I call dad to look for it on Amazon? I did try searching on massagers but nothing like that came up on the first two pages.
