Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
I have been practicing massage for over 20 years and am well instructed with many modalities and can incorporate any or all of them in one session.
I find that many times, one modality alone may not address the root problem caused by the original trauma. We have many layers of connective tissue (fascia) and different techniques are needed to reestablish a good healthy integration of the nervous system, connective tissue and musculoskeletal system so that our innate healing of our bodies can be activated and working effectively.
