A deep tissue massage is a therapeutic technique that targets the inner layers of muscle and its surrounding connective tissue known as fascia. Using firm pressure and slow, deep strokes, your massage therapist works to break up scar tissue and release muscle adhesions, or knots.
These knots are bands of rigid muscles that negatively impact your circulation and cause pain and inflammation.
Deep tissue can relieve the built-up tension from stress, exercise, and prolonged postural problems. It offers a prime solution for those dealing with:
1. Chronic pain
2. Muscle injuries
3. Sports-related injuries
4. Fatigued bodies from highly physical activities
