Advanced Deep Tissue Massage is a different experience from Swedish Massage. This style gets really deep into the muscles to release the tight knots/adhesions which form when the muscle fibres kind of stick together in a rigid and often painful way. You'll recognise this feeling as muscle tension that is difficult to shift, perhaps deep in your back or your legs.

 

Deep Tissue will work to increase the range of movement in the muscles and joints. It can help if you have muscle spasms and really goes to work on tension. The flow of all the good things (oxygen, nutrients, fluids) your muscles need improves, so they are better nourished than when the muscle fibres are all tight and restricted and don't get the best circulation. And you may find your posture improves as the muscles which were tight and pulling are at ease again and those that were doing the work of compensating can also relax again.

​

What does this mean? It means you'll feel it more, the deeper muscles get some lovely work and you may or may not doze off.

​

When is it good? If you work out a lot, if you've had an injury that has healed but is still holding a lot of tension, if your range of movement is restricted, if your muscles are tight and knotted this might be a great session for you.
