Deep Tissue Therapy

Massage is a natural approach to pain relief.

What is Deep Tissue therapy?

Deep tissue therapy is a means of working deeply into the muscles to break down tension, mobilise the area, remove restrictions and reduce pain.

We have superficial muscles and deep muscles and deep tissue massage works on both sets of muscles so that greater freedom of movement and tension release can be obtained.

Deep tissue massage therapy works by applying firm and precise pressure on the muscles, knots and areas of tension to get to the root of the problem and break down sticky fibres, release tension and get oxygen into the muscle.
