I second the myofascial release. I go every three weeks if I can, but I'm at maintenance level now. When I first discovered I had chronic myofascial pain in 2002, I went more frequently because I had knots in my shoulder and hips the size of quarters.

Even if you don't have trigger points, I recommend therapeutic massage because it works toxins out of the muscles. And you had your share of toxins with the chemo. I figure every little bit of pain you can lessen will be helpful.
