The Benefits
Deep tissue and sports massage is a massage technique that treats musculoskeletal issues, such as muscle tension, strains and injuries. It helps to break up the scar tissue that forms following an injury, balances muscles and reduces tension in muscle and tissue by using various techniques including massage, stretching and electrotherapy.
Deep tissue massage also promotes faster healing by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation.
Deep tissue massage offers both physical and psychological benefits. Unlike other massage techniques that focus on relaxation, deep tissue massage helps to treat muscle pain and improve stiffness. But it can still help to you unwind mentally, too.
It is great for preventing and treating sports injuries but can also have really positive results in treating chronic aches and pains including back ache and neck pain.
