Deep Tissue Massage

A firmer massage for deeper tension

Deep Tissue Massage in Brislington, Bristol

Deep tissue massage uses slower, firmer pressure to work into deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. It can be helpful if you have long-standing tightness, stubborn knots, postural tension or aching muscles from exercise, work or everyday life.

Your treatment will always be adapted to you and how your body is feeling on the day. I will gradually work into the areas that need the most attention, which may include tight shoulders, tension through the back, hips, legs or other areas carrying extra strain.

Release tension and move more freely

Deep tissue massage is not about using the hardest pressure possible. It is about working slowly and carefully to help the muscles soften and release. I may use a combination of firm massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, stretches and movement techniques.

Some areas may feel tender while they are being worked on, but I will always check in with you and keep the pressure within your comfort level.

Deep tissue massage may help with:

• Long-standing muscle tension

• Tight shoulders, neck and back

• Stubborn knots and trigger points

• Postural aches and pains

• Tired or overworked muscles

• Recovery after exercise or physical work

• Improving movement and reducing stiffness

You should leave feeling looser, lighter and more comfortable in your body.
