What are the benefits of deep tissue massage?

There are many benefits to receiving a deep tissue massage, some of them include:

• Relieving Stress

• Reducing pain in muscles

• Lowering blood pressure and heart rate

• Breaking up scar tissue & making overall movement easier

• Reducing symptoms of arthritis

• Rehabilitating injured muscles

How often should you get a deep tissue massage?

For stress relief, it is recommended to get a deep tissue massage every 1-2 weeks.

Deep tissue massage performed by a trained professional registered massage therapist has often been found to help relieve stress, anxiety, and stress-related insomnia. If you are experiencing a particularly difficult time, try to book a massage service every 1-2 weeks.

Are deep tissue massages painful?

It shouldn't hurt, but it's likely to be a bit more uncomfortable than a classic relaxation massage. You should definitely feel free to speak up if the pressure being applied is too much to handle for you. It's important to drink a lot of water after a deep tissue massage to help flush lactic acid out of the tissues.
