What is deep tissue massage therapy?

​

Deep tissue massage is a therapeutic technique that focuses on reaching the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissues in the body. Through the application of firm pressure and slow strokes, deep tissue massage aims to alleviate chronic tension, release adhesions (knots), and break up scar tissue. Unlike Swedish massage, which primarily promotes relaxation, deep tissue massage targets specific areas of discomfort and aims to provide relief from chronic pain conditions such as back pain, neck pain, and shoulder tension. This modality can improve flexibility, range of motion, and posture by addressing underlying muscular issues and promoting better alignment. Deep tissue massage is often sought after by individuals seeking targeted pain relief and improved physical function.
