What is Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep Tissue Massage is a massage technique
that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue.
It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in
the body through slow strokes and deep finger
pressure on the contracted areas, either following
or going across the fiber's of the muscles, tendons
and fascia.

Deep tissue massage is used to release chronic muscle tension through slower
strokes and more direct deep pressure or friction applied across the grain of the
muscles not with the grain. Deep tissue massage helps to break up and eliminate
scar tissue. Deep tissue massage usually focuses on more specific areas and may
cause some soreness during or right after the massage. However, if the massage is
done correctly you should feel better than ever within a day or two.

Why get a Deep Tissue Massage?
It feels good and it is beneficial to your health. When muscles are stressed, they
block oxygen and nutrients, leading to inflammation that builds up toxins in the
muscle tissue. A deep-tissue massage helps loosen muscle tissues, release toxins
from muscles and get blood and oxygen circulating properly. Because many toxins
are released, it's important to drink plenty of water after a deep-tissue session to
help eliminate these toxins from the body.
