Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage addresses chronic pain and discomfort primarily through assessing the skeletal alignment of the body in relation to the condition of soft tissue such as muscle and fascia. If a specific muscle requires deep tissue the therapist will massage the origin and insertion of where that muscle attaches to bone. This allows the belly of the muscle to relax which decreases pain and tightness. After receiving deep tissue massage, clients feel relieved of tightness, restrictions in movement and pain.
