Deep Tissue Massage

Targeting the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, deep tissue massage uses many of the same techniques but with increasing pressure.

Deep tissue massage is often used for chronically tight or painful muscles and injury recovery. Many of the strokes of deep tissue massage are similar to those used in Swedish massage therapy. GreatLIFE deep tissue massage is used to break up scar tissue and physically break down muscle knots and rigid tissue that can affect circulation and cause pain, limited range of motion, and inflammation.

In the beginning, lighter pressure is applied to warm up and prep the muscles. Specific deeper massage techniques are then applied.
