A massage is a wonderfully relaxing, enjoyable experience that is well known for relieving stress and tension. A deep tissue, therapeutic massage offers these benefits and much more. Going further than the classic Swedish massage that works on the surface layers under the skin, deep tissue massage therapy penetrates deeply to the muscles and tendons to promote natural healing.
Deep tissue massage therapy relieves muscle pain and improves flexibility. Using slow movements and deep pressure, circulation is increased, enhancing oxygen and nutrient rich blood flow to nourish the tissues and help to flush away toxins that contribute to inflammation and pain. This deep tissue body work releases the tension in muscles and tendons that restricts motion, increasing the elasticity and ability to stretch and rebound. With the increased blood flow and elimination of toxins, pain is reduced and healing from injury or disease is facilitated.
Trained, licensed massage therapists have a thorough knowledge of physiology to target affected areas such as a stiff neck, aching back, or long term pain experienced in the shoulders, legs, arms, or hands. Massage therapy can effectively promote healing for medical conditions including sports related injuries, fibromyalgia, muscle spasm, osteoarthritis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. It is often used in conjunction with chiropractic treatments to help moderate trigger points or provide relaxation prior to chiropractic treatment.
A deep tissue massage is corrective and therapeutic to facilitate healing from specific injuries or conditions or to simply enhance the body's overall health and a feeling of well-being. It aids in significantly reducing the stress and anxiety that can lead to muscle pain and serious health conditions.
