Deep Tissue Massage involves the application of firmer pressure and slower strokes to reach the deeper layers of muscle, tendons, and fascia. The movements are generally performed with fingers, knuckles, hands, elbows and forearms and are commonly focused solely on the specific areas of pain and tension.
Deep tissue is largely favoured amongst athletes and sports enthusiasts as it helps release stubborn knots, chronic tension, contracted areas, and adhesions. Its style can also help your muscles and joints return to their ideal range of motion. While some treatments may feel similar to a Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage isn't a stronger version; rather, it increases the capacity of a Swedish with its deeper touch. Lighter pressure is generally applied to warm up the muscle at the start of your massage. Afterwards, the pressure progresses to your level of comfort. Always communicate with your Registered Massage Therapist to ensure the pressure is catered to your personal tolerance.
After your massage, you may feel some stiffness or soreness, but it should subside within a day or so. Be sure to contact your massage therapist if you have concerns or if you feel pain after a massage.
