A deep tissue massage is the perfect massage for you, especially if you are familiar with massage and know that you like a firmer pressure. Or if you are recovering from strains, injuries or have a chronic pain condition. At Secret Garden Holistics during your deep tissue massage we use slow, deep strokes. Targeting the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissues. This deep tissue massage technique not only breaks up areas of tension, but also helps to break up areas of scar tissue that can form after an injury.
Other techniques used within deep tissue massage include the therapist using their elbows or forearms to apply firmer pressure. Don’t be surprised by this! While it may feel uncomfortable at the time, it is important to ensure that the pressure is sufficient enough. This will resolve any issues that you may have.
After your massage you will be encouraged to drink plenty of water to ensure that your body continues to flush out toxins the massage has released from your body. You should also try to keep the massage oils on as long as possible as they are nourishing the skin.
As part of your consultation, you should let the therapist know the kind of pressure that you like and continue to do so throughout the treatment. If you are experiencing too much pressure, or would like a little more. This is your session, it is important that you get the result that you are looking for! Discounts available for bundles
