Deep Tissue Massage

 

 

Deep Tissue Massage is a massage technique that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the fibre's of the muscles, tendons and fascia.


When muscles are stressed, they block oxygen and nutrients, leading to inflammation that builds up toxins in the muscle tissue. A deep-tissue massage helps loosen muscle tissues, release toxins from muscles and get blood and oxygen circulating properly. Because many toxins are released, it's important to drink plenty of water after a deep-tissue session to help eliminate these toxins from the body.


Here at the Healing Rooms, therapists who perform Deep Tissue massage may draw from various forms of massage including Swedish, Neuro-Muscular, Holistic and Lymphatic Drainage to help bring about a balance between the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Work is done on the ligaments, soft tissue and tendons of the body to achieve this. These techniques can be very effective in treating and helping to prevent further injury.
Please specify when booking if you prefer a therapist who practises deep tissue massage.
