Deep tissu

Deep tissue massage is a therapeutic massage technique that uses firm, slow strokes and deep pressure to target the inner layers of muscles and connective tissue, like tendons and fascia. It is used to break up scar tissue and muscle "knots," release chronic tension, and alleviate pain, especially in areas like the neck, shoulders, and lower back. While similar strokes to a Swedish massage are used, deep tissue massage is slower and the pressure is more intense.
