Deep Tissue Massage is a massage technique that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the fiber’s of the muscles, tendons and fascia.
Deep tissue massage can help to break up and eliminate scar tissue, and usually focuses on more specific areas. Deep tissue techniques are used on specific areas during the treatment and work well on legs and back muscles.
