Wow, that doesn't sound like a herniated disk to me Ant. I had one 3 years ago -- l4/l5 rupture with disintegration and floating debris in my spinal canal. I couldn't walk for months without pain and massive discomfort, even after the two spinal epidural fills I got at the Mayo.
This sounds, not to scare you, more severe than a ruptured disk if you've got pain and numbness and tingling all over your body. Mine was limited to the right side sciatic nerve, but even that was enough to drive me crazy nearly.
Keep us posted, this sounds like something you definitely need to get worked on by the doctors, not the massage therapists.
