Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is best for giving attention to certain painful, stiff "trouble spots" in your body. Deep tissue massage techniques are similar to Swedish massage, but deeper pressure is used to release chronic muscle tension. In most cases, deep tissue massage utilizes slow and deliberate strokes that are focused on the deeper layers of tissue and tendons. When properly applied, deep tissue massage can be very therapeutic – relieving tension and aiding in the recovery of muscle strain and injuries.
Deep Tissue Massage can provide relief from stiffness and pain caused by sports injuries, whiplash, osteoarthritis, muscle spasms, fibromyalgia and other strain-related injuries.
