For muscle type pain and injuries, I have not had much help from conventional medical doctors and physical therapists, except for one doctor and a PT he worked closely with. They were like miracle workers for me. All of the other PTs actually made me worse. If one PT doesn't fix you I would keep trying and seek out second, third or more opinions. The PTs I have seen seem to have widely varying degrees of expertise.
Beside the one helpful PT, most of the rest of my improvement came from acupressure balls and massage tools, foam rollers, posture training, trigger point therapy, moist heat packs and yoga therapy. Also some nutritional deficiencies can cause or at least contribute to tight muscles. Nutrition testing has also helped me in the past. Good luck on your health issues.
