Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage from Dasha at My Body Therapy Liverpool

Deep tissue is a type of massage therapy that is used to treat chronic tension and injuries from overuse, such as tennis elbow. If you’re suffering from tensions and aches that cannot be solved by a soft tissue massage, then a deep tissue massage might be the answer you’re looking for. During a deep tissue massage, the pace tends to be slower while the pressure is stronger and concentrated on the problematic area.

You might have a stiff neck and upper back, lower back pain, tight legs or sore shoulders. Deep tissue massage works to realign the different layers of tissue, treating the tendons, ligaments and fascia as well as the muscles to release tension and provide pain relief.

Deep tissue massage usually focuses on a specific problem, the list of conditions that can be effectively treated includes whiplash and repetitive strain, postural problems, sciatica, sports injury, recovery from falls, muscle tension or spasm. This therapy has been found to be more effective in relieving osteoarthritis pain than a wide range of alternatives, including prescription medications and over-the-counter drugs. It’s also recommended for fibromyalgia pain with an improvement in the range of motion often noticeable immediately.

The benefits aren’t just muscle and pain-related, deep tissue massage treatment can lower blood pressure, heart rate and stress hormone levels. Massage is good for the mind as well as the body boosting mood and helping you relax.
