I've had a similar experience, just around the end of a cluster (I'd gone a couple of days without a CH) I had an aromatherapy massage and it did give me a few more bad ones. I put it down to a change in stress levels - which seems to be one thing that can start and end clusters for me.
Interestingly, though, one thing that really does help during a bad headache is to have a light shoulder massage. I reckon a large amount of the pain (with me) is brought on by the stress and anxiety of an attack, so something to relax me can help.
