Deep Tissue Massage

Deep Tissue Massage is a massage technique in which your therapist applies slow and firm pressure to break up scar tissue and knots, targeting deep layers of muscle tissue for comprehensive relief and relaxation.

Benefits of Deep Tissue Massage

Massage therapy can improve your physical and mental health immensely. Deep tissue massage may offer the following benefits:

  • Pain relief

  • Injury prevention and rehabilitation

  • Improved movement

  • Joint mobility

  • Improved blood flow

  • Breaking up scar tissue

What to Expect

During your deep tissue massage, your therapist will apply targeted pressure to address knots and scar tissue, which may cause moments of discomfort. However, this discomfort is typically indicative of the massage effectively releasing tension and promoting healing. It’s normal to experience a slight soreness afterward, signaling the massage’s efficacy. If you have any concerns or preferences during your session, don’t hesitate to communicate them to your massage therapist for a personalized experience.

After your massage you will feel relaxed and have some soreness. It is normal to feel sore 1-2 days after a deep tissue massage. Your soreness may feel like what you experience after an intense workout.  

If you have never had a deep tissue massage before, you will want to prepare for being sore afterward. Here are some tips you can do to have the best deep tissue massage experience:  

  • Drink water before and after your massage to hydrate your muscles and lessen soreness.  
  • During your massage, keep your body loose and take deep breathes. If you are tense, you may experience more pain or discomfort. 
  • Take a warm bath with Epsom salts after your massage to relieve muscle soreness. 
  • Light cardiovascular exercise to help with blood flow and any residual soreness
