What is Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep tissue massage is a massage technique which is mainly used to treat musculoskeletal issues, such as strains and sports injuries. It involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduce tension in muscle and tissue. It also help promote faster healing by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation.

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue is a massage style utilizing the fingers, thumbs and elbows to release chronic muscle tension utilizing slow, deep strokes, and friction. The therapist may work perpendicularly to the length of the fibres of the superficial muscles, with the intent of massaging muscle that lies underneath.

Deep Tissue massage takes from other types of bodywork, cross-fibre friction massage, deep tissue sculpting, Hellerwork, Rolfing and others; it is believed to increase blood flow and to be of greatest use in problem muscles for pain, rehabilitation and arthritic complaints

Deep Tissue massage aims to relieve severe tension in muscles, connective tissue or fascia. Deep tissue focuses on the muscles located below the surface of the top muscles. This type of massage is often recommended for individuals experiencing chronic pain or involved in heavy physical activity, and patients who have sustained a non-recent physical injury. It is not uncommon for receivers of deep tissue massage to have their pain replaced with a new muscle ache for a day or two.
