Deep Tissue Massage
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. |

What is the purpose of Deep Tissue Massage?
The purpose is to relax the fibers of a muscle while releasing
deeply-held patterns of tension, removing toxins, while
relaxing and soothing the muscle. It is both corrective and
therapeutic.
