Deep Tissue Massage can be especially helpful for individuals who prefer a lot of pressure used during a massage.  Focusing on the deeper layers of the muscles, Deep Tissue Massage aims to release tension in the body, thus noticeably loosening muscles, alleviating pain and increasing mobility. This type of Massage is both corrective and therapeutic.

The approach taken to a holistic treatment takes the whole being into account ie not just physical symptoms. Based around Swedish massage technique, this may draw on several styles in order to give a unique treatment that is specific to your needs.

Pregnancy massage is a beautiful opportunity to allow you to experience comfort and relaxation, while also helping to alleviate some of the aches and pains associated with this time of physical and emotional change. A customised massage incorporates beautiful flowing Lomi Lomi massage strokes to nurture and soothe the body. The treatment is adapted to suit your individual needs but usually consists of a full body treatment ending with neck, facial & scalp massage.

Deep Tissue Massage targets the deep tissue structure of the fascia and muscles, referred to as connective tissue. Of the many types of massage, deep tissue focuses on the release of muscle tension and chronic knots. Deep tissue massage can break up and eliminate scar tissue from previous injuries. A common problem is that stressed muscles can block nutrients and oxygen from getting to where they need to go, and this will cause inflammation that allows toxins to build up in your muscle tissue.  The inflammation and toxins contribute to pain and stress. Deep Tissue Massage breaks up and releases the built-up toxins by loosening the muscles. With the toxins released, blood and oxygen can circulate as they should through one’s body. Being properly hydrated before you go to your massage appointment and drinking plenty of water after one of these massages is highly recommended. The strokes used in deep tissue massage are similar to those used in a Swedish Massage except more pressure is used and it uses cross grain strokes (strokes that go across the gain of the muscles instead of with the grain). As with a classic Swedish massage, you will be lying on a massage table and covered with a sheet or towel. A good way to recover from a Deep Tissue Massage is by soaking in a warm bath with Epsom salt. This soaking is recommended because it will help get more of the toxins out of your body (Epsom salt draws the toxins out into the water). Your muscles need some rest after one of these massages, even if you feel no soreness. So do not plan any activities within a day of a Deep Tissue Massage. Some people think that if you just push hard enough, a knot could be worked out in one session, but this is not the case. For built-up tension and chronic knots (adhesions) deep tissue massage is just one part of the treatment.
