Deep tissue massage employs a variety of techniques, including slow strokes, deep pressure, friction, and cross-grain strokes, to break down adhesions bands of painful, rigid tissue.
These adhesions can disrupt circulation, cause pain, and limit movement. The therapist applies deep pressure using their fingers, thumbs, elbows, and forearms to reach the deeper layers of muscle and fascia, targeting specific areas of tension.
Deep tissue massage differs from other types of massage in its focus and intensity. While Swedish massage is designed for relaxation and gentle muscle manipulation, deep tissue massage goes further by focusing on chronic muscle tension and knots.
It is more intensive and may cause some discomfort during the process, as it works to relieve deep-seated muscle issues. The goal is to reach the underlying layers of muscle and fascia to alleviate chronic pain and improve movement, rather than simply relaxing the body.
