Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage is designed to reach the deeper muscles and tissues and is often used to treat muscle damage from injuries, chronic pain, and tension. It is generally considered to be very effective for relieving muscle tension and pain. During this massage, the therapist will use firm pressure, and constant deep strokes at a rhythmic pace to release knots from the muscles, ultimately relieving pain. The scar muscles that form after a muscle injury also get eased. The masseuse applies medium to deep pressure on the body, mainly using her fingers and her palms. The forearms and elbows are also occasionally used. This is an oil massage that uses aromatic oils. Deep tissue massages are also very popular among athletes who undergo the sessions after a training or sports event.
