Designed to treat severe tension, Deep Tissue massage therapy focuses on the deepest layers of muscle tissue, tendons and fascia (the protective layer surrounding muscles, bones and joints).
Deep Tissue Massage techniques
Deep Tissue massage uses slow, deep strokes either following or going across the grain of muscles and connective tissue. Because this massage uses firm finger pressure, it allows for the release of chronic muscle tension. Deep Tissue massage is ideal for treatment of major muscle groups like the neck or lower back. It can also be used to relieve strain and treat injuries in your joints and tendons.
