Deep Tissue Massage is a specific type of massage therapy that concentrates on the deep layers of muscle and fascia in the body. By using deep finger pressure and slow, firm strokes, deep tissue massage is used to treat a variety of physical ailments.
Deep tissue massage can be both remedial and therapeutic depending on the objective of the treatment, For example, a remedial deep tissue massage may focus on improving tissue quality and function on a specific part/area of the body, such as the neck and upper back. These areas are common to experience chronic pain or muscular tension, due to factors such as bad posture, elevated levels of stress or poor respiratory patterns. This type of massage is usually quite slow.
A deep tissue massage can be therapeutic with no objective in particular but to achieve overall good health and well-being.
