<strong>About</strong> <strong>Deep</strong> <strong>Tissue</strong> <strong>Massage</strong>


<strong>Deep</strong> tissue massage is a massage therapy wherein firm applying<br />

pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper layers of muscle and<br />

fascia (the connective tissue surrounding muscles). This type of<br />

therapy is highly beneficial for the contracted tissue muscles around<br />

the neck, lower back pain, leg muscle tightness and sore shoulders.<br />

<strong>Deep</strong> tissue massage is also used for relaxation. This therapy is<br />

beneficial for persons recovering from injuries, especially those which<br />

are sports generated, osteoarthritis, muscle spasms and postural<br />

problems. To reach this objective, the deep tissue massage therapists<br />

often apply intense pressure or friction across the grain of the muscle.


Potential benefits of deep tissue massage :-<br />

• <strong>Deep</strong> tissue massage usually focus on the following conditions:-<br />

• Low back pain<br />

• Limited mobility<br />

• Recovery from injuries (e.g. whiplash, falls)<br />

• Repetitive strain injury, such as carpal tunnel syndrome<br />

• Postural problems<br />

• Muscle tension in the hamstrings<br />

• Upper back or neck pain


Techniques that are applied during deep tissue<br />

massage therapy<br />

At the beginning of a deep tissue massage, lighter pressure is generally<br />

applied to warm up and prepare the muscles. <strong>Massage</strong> therapists may<br />

use fingertips, knuckles, hands, elbows, and forearms during a deep<br />

tissue massage. Specific techniques are then applied include:-<br />

• Stripping<br />

• Friction<br />

• Stripping:- <strong>Deep</strong>, gliding pressure along the length of the muscle<br />

fibers using the elbow, forearm, knuckles, and thumbs.<br />

• Friction:- Pressure applied across the grain of a muscle to release<br />

adhesions and realign tissue fibers.


What to Expect after a Session<br />

The technique usually focuses on specific areas. It can be offered in<br />

combination with other styles of massage, as a whole-body treatment or<br />

concentrated in one area, for example the lower back or shoulders. The<br />

therapist will work with you to find a comfortable level of pressure, and will<br />

work with your breathing to help minimize discomfort and get the best<br />

possible release from the tissues. When a deep tissue massage is done<br />

correctly, the benefits are experienced within the next few days. It is<br />

advisable to rest and relax as much as possible after your deep tissue<br />

massage treatment, take a warm bath, and drink lots of water after the<br />

massage may help to flush the metabolic waste from the tissues.
