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 "unstick" 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.
