Why did the dentist tell me to brush my teeth until they bleed?

I recently went to the dentist and she told me that when I brush my teeth I hav to brush the gumline near the teeth until it bleeds and sure enough I have been doing that but now my gums start to hurt when they used to not. Did I hear her wrongly or is bruhsing till they bleed supposed to help?
