I think neuro-muscular massage is really valuable when done by someone trained specifically in this area. My therapist was a sports massage therapist who got additional accreditation in neuro-muscular massage. If looking for someone in this field, I suggest calling a reputable local massage therapist and explaining your need, or asking a savvy PT if they know of person with such training. You might also call local gyms/personal trainers and ask if they have the names of any such therapists.

Unfortunately, although I went only once per week, and did see benefit from it, I also would have such a flare for 2-3 days after from RSD that I eventually gave it up. While very good for freeing nerves from sticky fascia, this therapy proved to be too much for an over-stimulated nervous system.

Catch-22 again!

If you don't have RSD, I heartily recommend you give it a try!
