This massage targets chronic or acute pain patterns of muscular tension, inflammation or stiffness. We customize deep tissue techniques to relax the soft tissue layer by layer, working out strains and adhesions, positively affecting the health of the muscle and the well being of the client.
Often integrated with other massage methods, deep-tissue work is exactly what it sounds like. Your therapist can elicit plenty of relaxation for you with traditional massage to the outer layers of skin and muscle, but the benefits of deep-tissue massage can take that one step further or deeper. Once the outer layer of muscles have been relaxed with preliminary techniques, it's easier for your therapist to connect to the underlying musculature and deeper connective tissue, called fascia.
The fascia is a deep, dense, strong part of your physiology that helps join your body parts together. Deep-tissue work is an excellent remedy for chronic muscular pain, injury rehabilitation, and reduction of inflammation-related pain caused by arthritis and tendonitis.
