Deep tissue massage is designed to relieve severe chronic pain and tension in tight, sore muscles. This includes the encapsulating connective tissue called fascia. This type of massage focuses first on releasing the tightness in the muscle fascia which is the sheath that surrounds the individual muscle being worked on. With this done, the existing problems in the tight muscle bands and the muscle trigger points in a particular muscle, become more apparent and can be more easily and accurately pin pointed, then worked on, and finally released.

Deep tissue massage is often recommended for individuals who experience chronic pain, those having repetitive stress injuries such as athletes and dancers or patients who have sustained physical injuries. It is not uncommon for receivers of deep tissue massage, to occasionally have their pain replaced with soreness from the nature of the work. If this occurs, the soreness usually fades within 24 hours, leaving the patient pain free with restored range of motion. To speed this process along and diminish or prevent this soreness, it is recommended that the patient soak in a hot Epsom salt bath for at least 20 minutes soon after the deep tissue treatment.

Since the muscle tissue closest to the skin releases first, the muscles located near the surface must be released and relaxed before the deeper muscles problems can be addressed. If this is not done properly (gradually and in stages), the patient will experience unnecessary pain and soreness. He or she can even become black and blue latter on rendering the session totally counterproductive. To correct a major misconception, you don’t have to experience deep, intense pressure to get lasting positive pain relief. Deep tissue massage is applied to both the fascia, the superficial as well as the deep layers of the muscles, and other anatomical structures such as the joints. Its main purpose is to focus on very specific problems.

The sessions can at times be quite intense as a result of the deliberate, focused work on active trigger points which can already be quite painful to the touch. The type of pain experienced in this process is usually referred to as good pain ( It hurts so good). When a client asks for a massage and uses the term “deep tissue”, more often than not he or she is seeking to receive a full-body session with sustained deep pressure throughout. The term “deep tissue” is often misused to identify a massage that is performed with sustained deep pressure. Deep tissue massage is a separate category of massage therapy. It is used to treat particular muscular-skeletal complaints and disorders and employs a dedicated set of techniques and strokes to achieve a measure of pain relief. It should not be confused with “ deep pressure” massage, which is one that is performed with sustained strong, pressure throughout an entire full-body session, whose purpose is not performed to address a specific complaint or muscular problems, but rather to stimulate the circulatory system and remove built up toxins trapped in tight muscles.
