Did you end up trying heat? The more I think about it the more that might help; heat (and purposeful relaxation), followed by massage...(Must! Fix! Everyone! Sorry.)
Have you ever investigated Alexander Technique? It might also help, if this sort of thing happens regularly. It's basically techniques for guided relaxation, and learning how to live life in a (kinesthetic) fashion that doesn't cause you to tense up again.
