Deep Tissue
Massage

Deep tissue massage utilizes firm, but gentle, pressure on key areas to encourage the muscles and tissues to loosen and release. It is slower, more targeted, and delivered with more pressure than a Swedish massage, which only targets the superficial layers of the skin and is more rhythmic in nature. Your massage therapist may use heat, stretching, and dynamic cupping during a deep tissue massage session. The goal is to work all of the connective tissues, tendons, and fascia to release tension and knots and facilitate ease of movement.
