That's a hard question to answer because the body is very deceiving there are steps the body takes in order to keep you going such as the dominance of the mind the brain will only allow you to focus on one primary pain at a time this does not mean you can't feel other pains it just means that you will always only have one active at a time.

When working on these areas its best to go slow assess the damage then slowly start working deeper into the calf you want to gain trust quick with the body because the body is currently in a hypersensitive state due to the current injury. Sports massage utilizes special stretches in order to cover more areas quicker.

This is why they call it sports massage because these specialized techniques are designed to address athletes specific needs as many people do not generally go through the same stress as an athlete will put themselves through. Muscle memory is very important especially for an athlete because when you are constantly pushing yourself you need to make your body understand the difference between unsafe and safe levels and that's what sports massage excels at.

When you fix primary issues in the body you gain what we call ROM (Range Of Motion) this range of motion tells the body how far it can safely extend without causing damage. When using sports massage you connect the mind to the body by using active resistance stretch techniques such as taking someone's foot placing it on your shoulder and having them press it against you then leaning into them having them press against you this will tell the body or force it a bit to let go of whatever it may be holding on to then giving you an opening to work further into the problem later.
