What is deep tissue massage?

Deep tissue massage is a massage technique that’s mainly used to treat musculoskeletal issues, such as strains and sports injuries. It involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduce tension in muscle and tissue. Book Now

During a deep tissue massage, the process typically involves the following steps:

  • Client Assessment: The massage therapist begins by assessing the client’s medical history, areas of concern, and specific goals for the session.
  • Preparation: The client lies on a massage table and may be asked to undress to their level of comfort. They are then draped with a sheet or towel to maintain privacy.
  • Application of Pressure: The therapist applies slow, firm pressure to the targeted muscles and connective tissues using their hands, fingers, forearms, and elbows.
  • Focused Strokes: The massage therapist uses various techniques, such as stripping, friction, and kneading, to work on specific problem areas and release tension.
  • Communication: Throughout the session, the client is encouraged to communicate their comfort level and any sensations they experience.
  • Breathing and Relaxation: The therapist may guide the client in deep breathing techniques to promote relaxation and enhance the effectiveness of the massage.
  • Hydration: After the massage, it’s essential for the client to drink plenty of water to help flush out toxins released during the session.
