​Commonly used to treat sports injuries and strains, deep tissue massage is the massage of choice for people looking for a therapeutic effect from their massage session. Deep tissue massage is one of the most popular types of massages and delivers plenty of benefits to the body. It uses slow strokes and applying deep pressure to reach deeper layers of the muscles and fascia. Deep tissue massage helps release tension in the tissues and muscles. It also helps to reduce inflammation and increase blood flow into the muscles.

What are the benefits of deep tissue massage

​Deep tissue massage provide physical and mental benefits. It focuses on relieving stiffness and dealing with muscle pain. This massage can also help you to relax after a busy day at work.
Here’s a few of the benefits of deep tissue massage:
  • Relieves chronic lower back pain
  • Improves the blood flow through your muscles
  • May help lower high blood pressure
  • Deep relaxation may help reduce anxiety
  • It helps to break up stagnation in the body to help it flush out toxins
  • Helps to improve your range of motion

How is it different from other forms of massage?

Deep tissue massage targets the the deep tissue muscles and fascia by applying strong pressure to move blood and stagnation. Regular massage does not involve a lot of force and is designed for general relaxation. Deep tissue massage usually results in some discomfort and you might even find it a little painful, particularly when the massage therapist is massaging areas where there is scar tissue or inflammation.
​
Fundamentally, deep tissue massage is a great option if you have any aches or pains, injury or limited mobility that you want help with.  Although, some people prefer the stronger massage regardless.
