What is Deep Tissue Massage and Why "Go harder" isn't part of it...

Deep Tissue Massage is not about pressure, it’s about results. Deep Tissue is any massage technique affecting deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. Some very light techniques affect deeper layers, like myofascial release. It's a lighter, slower technique that has a greater effect than digging in with an elbow. The most important part of every massage is communication! So, now that you know, give your massage therapist a break. Let them build release and healing in your muscles by letting go of "Go harder." 😉

~ What is the relaxation response? ~
In a massage a caring, safe touch is an invitation to relax. This, together with pain relief, generally produces a "relaxation response."

The relaxation response is a state in which your heart and breathing rate slow, your blood pressure goes down, your production of stress hormones decreases, and your muscles relax. The relaxation response also seems to increase the available level of serotonin, which is a chemical in the body that positively affects emotions and thoughts. While this information is promising, more studies are needed to directly confirm the relationship between massage and levels of serotonin in the brain.

The relaxation response may decrease the physical effects of stress and reduce the risks associated with stress, such as hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, anxiety, insomnia, persistent fatigue, sexual dysfunction, digestive disorders, and psychological issues - to name a few.
