Deep tissue massage focuses on the deeper layers of your muscle tissue.
It aims to release chronic patterns of tension in your body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas.
This could either follow or cross the fibres of your muscles, tendons and fascia
What is Deep Tissue Massage Therapy?
Deep Tissue Massage is the application of firm and deep pressure for the treatment of the muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues of the body to assist in rehabilitation, pain and injury management.
