Yes there is.
If you over-massage, the first thing (apart from scalp reddening) will be the over-production of sebum. If you carry on rubbing, you will stress out your hair follicles and may damage them structurally. A friend had her scalp massaged Indian style (very vigorously) and she not only got an oil-slick on her head, she lost loads of hair following the massage and about a week later had some nasty pustules of blocked follicles on her scalp. She was itching like crazy and when I had a look at them they gave me the itchies too.
Turquoise Girl is right. Be gentle with yourself and you will see positive results.
Best of luck

you could over massage it until your skin is really irritated or you roughed up the hair cuticle... is that what you mean? i do a little massage on the scalp with jojoba oil once a week(gently of course).
