Deep tissue massage is one form of massage therapy that focuses on the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue in the body. Some of the same strokes as classic massage therapy may be used, but the movement is generally slower and the pressure will be deeper and concentrated on the areas where the patient feels tension and pain.
Chronic Pain
Tight Muscles
We will start by warming up your muscles by applying oil and light pressure to the areas that will be worked on. This is a technique applied using thumbs, knuckles, forearms or elbows. During this, you’ll feel a a gliding pressure along the fibres of your muscles. Pressure is applied across the grain of your muscles with the aim of realigning tissue fibres and releasing any adhesions (areas of rigid tissue) that cause discomfort.
