For proper functioning of body, muscles
must be able to slide over each other freely. Stress, strain, injury or even
bad posture can compress the muscle layers and restrict movement. Deep Tissue massage works on the inside layer by layer, freeing compression and providing
uninhibited motion.
When there is chronic muscle tension, there
are usually adhesion's in muscles, tendons and ligaments. These can block blood
circulation and cause pain. Deep Tissue massage works by physically breaking
down these adhesion's to relieve pain and restore normal movement. To do this
therapy, oil is used and direct deep pressure is applied.
Deep Tissue massage
usually focuses on specific problems such as chronic pain, lower back pain,
postural problems. The therapist makes use of fingers, palm as well as
elbow on specific pressure points for
giving a relaxing effect.
