I was very interested in scalp massage at first but I have become a bit skeptical, here are threads you may be interested in :
detumescence therapy results
Regrowth Photos DT-CPR method - Page 23
Now if one finds a proper diet and stick to the massage then maybe results will follow.. The guy in the second link recommends using a cylindric item, I even used a glass and it made it easier to dig it while sparing the wrists and fingers. Headstands may help too. I wonder if there's a point where as you said you just massage with too much strength and it ends up being detrimental to scalp/hair health (at least temporarily).
Maybe there's a reason for the pattern of MPB , we could check how the nerve/vein/arteries network is laid out in the scalp, or if things like histamine could have a reason to accumulate where the hair fall.
