Deep Tissue Massage

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep Tissue Massage is particular massage technique that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. The aim is to release the chronic patterns of muscle tension in the body through very slow strokes and deep finger pressure on affected areas.

Deep tissue massage is specifically useful to release chronic muscle tension through the slower strokes and more direct deep pressure or friction that is applied across the grain of the muscles not with the grain of the muscle. Deep tissue massage is also well known to help with the break up and elimination of scar tissue. Focusing on specific areas may cause some soreness during or right after the massage.
