Deep Tissue Massage

For chronic or acute injuries, this massage treatment uses a therapeutic deep tissue touch, focusing on specific muscle groups to relieve pain, muscle spasms and overuse syndrome. Deep tissue pressure point release and muscle specific work offers maximum results and a quick recovery time. Our Deep Tissue Massage is especially helpful for chronically tense and contracted muscles such as a stiff neck, low back pain, and tight quads. When there is chronic muscle tension or injury, there are usually adhesions (bands of painful, rigid tissue) in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Deep tissue massage works by physically breaking down these adhesions to relieve pain and restore your body to normal movement.

What to expect with a deep tissue massage

At certain points during any deep tissue massage, you may find a point of discomfort and pain. It’s important to communicate with your massage therapist if too much pressure is resulting in any soreness or pain that is outside your comfort range. There may also be some stiffness or pain after a deep tissue massage that should subside within a day or so. A warm bath in Epsom salt is always a great home remedy for relaxing sore muscles, loosening stiff joints and pulling the toxins out of the body through the skin. In addition, icing your muscles will help with inflammation and recovery of stress or strained muscles.

Detox with deep tissue

When muscles are stressed they can block oxygen and nutrients leading to inflammation and toxins building up in the muscle tissue. A Deep Tissue Massage helps to “un-stick” the fibers of the muscle tissues, release deeply held patterns and get your blood and oxygen circulating correctly. Because toxins are released in the process, it’s important to drink plenty of water after your Deep Tissue Massage to help flush the toxins and keep you hydrated…another huge component to proper muscle recovery.
