Post Indian head massage - help!

I’m stressing a bit, any advice much appreciated!
I had an Indian head massage on Wednesday late afternoon, I’ve had one before but not for about 4 years I think. Lady doing it is known to be very good. I knew my shoulders felt quite tense and I could feel it working the knots out and she said after I was quite knotted.
Ive slept quite well the last two nights but I’ve also felt a bit rubbish! Quite anxious, shoulders and back still hurt, tired and sniffly. I’ve read online this can last for 2-3 days but is it likely to be the massage? I just can’t imagine feeling any benefits or feeling ‘lighter’ like you are meant to!? I have a big week next week so I really want to feel back to normal! Please help!!

If you're feeling tired and sniffly she may have passed on a cold to you.
