Deep tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage uses slow, firm strokes and pressure to ease and release tension deep in your muscles.This technique works on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. Similar to Swedish Massage, deep tissue massage uses slower and firmer strokes and pressure than other treatments – deep finger pressure that concentrates on particular areas, and follows or goes across the fibres of muscles and tendons.
Deep tissue massage is a blanket term that describes a number of different therapies, and is often used medically by physiotherapists, chiropractors and so on.
Deep tissue massage features in most forms of massage to some degree, including:
- Swedish massage
- Thai massage
- Sports/muscular massage
- Lymphatic drainage
Deep tissue massage is a particularly effective massage for people with muscular pain as well as to refresh and relax muscles, increasing the blood flow and therefore the oxygen flow around your body. This gets rid of toxins in very sore and strained muscles, which helps them to strengthen and heal.
Deep tissue massage is often used to treat people who are recovering from accidents, and for sports injuries as it increases blood circulation in muscles that are underused, relieves chronic muscle tension throughout the body, and can also break down scar tissue and “knots” deep in the muscles.
