What Is It?

A type of therapeutic massage called deep tissue massage emphasizes increased pressure on muscles and connective tissues. Targeting the deeper layers of muscles and fascia requires strong pressure and a variety of techniques, including friction, compression, and stretching. Deep tissue massage assists with both fascial and muscular tension, while encouraging relaxation and stress reduction.

It is crucial to keep in mind that deep tissue massage can be used with increased pressure and may result in mild to moderate soreness or discomfort during or after the session.
