Ever wondered what Deep Tissue Massage is, we here you go....😊

What is a Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep tissue massage is a pain alleviation and injury correction technique that aids the body in healing muscles and connective tissue. This type of massage therapy focuses heavily on the area of pain and tension, working to ease the symptoms, improve blood flow and facilitate restoration.

The movements involved in a deep tissue massage are a lot slower than most forms of massage therapy and, like the name suggests, work deep into the tissue and muscle. For those who suffer from chronic pain, muscle tension and restricted mobility, this type of massage is a fantastic solution. Pain relief through continued sessions should be long lasting and, with a mixture of exercise and chiropractic care after isolating the cause, a deep tissue massage can be part of a holistic and permanent solution to your pain.

How Does a Deep Tissue Massage Work?

Tension, strain and repeated injury can cause adhesions of stiff, rigid tissue in the body, affecting ligaments, muscles and tendons depending on the area. These adhesions can cause pain and inflammation while restricting movement and blood flow. Through deep tissue massage, this tissue stiffness is worked out to relieve pain and aid in the body’s natural healing process.

By breaking down this rigid tissue, movement is often restored and inflammation is allowed to subside. The correction of deep muscle injuries like this starts by alleviating the effects of injury and strain before working on strengthening the body through fitness and continued exercise.

Some people do experience slight discomfort during a deep tissue massage – the force and pressure needed to achieve results is far more than that you would find in a sports massage or at a day spa. Make sure that you communicate what you are feeling and where the discomfort is being felt with the person performing the massage.
