It’s suitable not only for those who is making sports activity every day or has an intence physical work, but also for those who feel their body being constantly tensed and tired.

Deep tissue massage benefits

​

Deep tissue massage benefits fall into both the physical and mental wellbeing camps. Most massages focus on relaxation alone. A deep tissue massage brings you these benefits but also helps you physically in terms of aches and stiffness. The main benefits of deep tissue massage include:

​

• Pain relief: Whether you’re struggling with a sports injury, living with plantar fasciitis, or have a chronic condition such as sciatica or fibromyalgia, deep tissue massage can bring pain relief. Evidence shows that massage is a powerful pain reliever.

• Healing: The increased blood flow stimulated by the massage works to help reduce inflammation and promote faster healing of injuries.

• Lowers blood pressure: Studies have shown that massage can help to lower your blood pressure.

• Improved flexibility: Deep tissue massage can improve the range of movement in tight muscles, allowing for better performance and safer workouts.

• Relaxation: Massage is a wellbeing wonder, and deep tissue massage has the same relaxing benefits. The massage boosts the body’s release of feel-good hormones like dopamine, serotonin and endorphins ensuring you feel blissfully relaxed.

• Aids sleep: As well as helping you sleep better due to pain relief, a deep tissue massage can have a soporific effect later on due to the natural injection of serotonin your body receives.

• Break-up scar tissue: If you have large or notable scars, a deep tissue massage will help to release the tension created by the scar, working fascia loose and promoting greater flexibility in the area.

What happens during the massage?

​

Before your deep tissue massage, i want to know about your problem areas. A deep tissue massage can involve your entire body or just one area.

Once we ready, you’ll be asked to lie on your back or stomach, under a sheet. Your level of undress is based on your comfort, but the area being worked on will need to be exposed.

I will warm up your muscles using a lighter touch. Once you’re warmed up, i will start working on your problem areas. I will  use deep kneading and stroking with varying amounts of intense pressure.
