Deep tissue massage, as its name suggests, concentrates on the deeper layers of muscle tissue to complement other types of massage that you can enjoy at The London Massage.
Deep tissue massage techniques use slow, intense strokes and deep, firm finger pressure (but not usually oils or lotions) to release chronic tension. Unlike massage that relies on the therapist working with ‘the grain’ of the muscle tissue, deep tissue massage is also applied ‘across the grain’ to normalise tissue and muscles.
Although this therapy should never hurt, some patients experience a slight soreness after their session – it’s quite normal and shows that the therapy is working as intended. Of course, your therapist will always ask you to tell them if the stroke pressure becomes too intense during massage.
