Can a massage therapist help torn tendons/ligaments in your knees heal quicker?

I have some damage to my knees. I think it is in the tendons or ligaments. Would deep massage help them heal? They are beginning to develop into a chronic ailment. ThanksCan a massage therapist help torn tendons/ligaments in your knees heal quicker?
