Deep
Tissue Massage is a massage technique that focuses on the
deeper layers of muscle tissue. The aim is 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 muscle fibers, tendons and
fascia.
Deep tissue
massage is used to release chronic muscle tension through
slower strokes and more direct deep pressure or friction
applied across the grain of the muscles not with the grain.
Deep tissue massage helps to break up and eliminate scar
tissue. Deep tissue massage usually focuses on more specific
areas and may cause some soreness during or right after
the massage. However, if the massage is done correctly you
should feel better than ever within a day or two.
Why get a Deep
Tissue Massage?
It feels good
and it is beneficial to your health. When muscles are stressed,
they block oxygen and nutrients, leading to inflammation
that builds up toxins in the muscle tissue. A deep-tissue
massage helps loosen muscle tissues, release toxins from
muscles and get blood and oxygen circulating properly. Because
many toxins are released, it's important to drink plenty
of water after a deep-tissue session to help eliminate these
toxins from the body.
What is the
purpose of Deep Tissue Massage?
The
purpose is to break up the restricted fibers of a muscle
while releasing deeply-held patterns of tension, removing
toxins, while relaxing and soothing the muscle. It is both
corrective and therapeutic.
