Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage uses a firm pressure, with a slower stroke, to work into the muscle, to release tension and ease tight muscles.
The focus is on the deepest layers of muscle tissue, tendons and fascia (the protective layer surrounding muscles, bones and joints). Deep tissue massage can loosen painful knots and realign deeper layers of muscle.
Deep tissue massage is more specifically focused on chronic muscle tension and stress reduction.
Deep tissue massage helps to treat muscle pain and improve stiffness, but, it can still help to you unwind mentally, too.
Deep tissue massage can be an all over body massage or can be used to target specific areas:
Neck and shoulder or back pain
Tight or tense muscles
Maintenance for sports people
Limited mobility
Recovery from injuries
Postural problems
