Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage therapy is primarily used for treating musculoskeletal issues, for example, strains and sports injuries.

If you are experiencing chronic pain, Deep Tissue may be able to help. Deep Tissue Massage breaks up scar tissue, muscle adhesions and knots. These knots can inhibit our circulation and cause pain and inflammation. During your session, our therapists will start off with light pressure to allow your muscles to warm up. They will then work into a deeper pressure using slow, deep strokes to relieve the deepest layers of your muscles and connective tissues.

If you are looking for a Deep Tissue Massage in Mississauga or Streetsville, our team at Kaizen Health Group is here to help! We offer various Massage Therapy services that can be tailored to your specific needs.

What To Expect During Your Deep Tissue Massage?

While performing Deep Tissue Massage, our therapists at Kaizen Health Group use varying techniques and pressure that focus on penetrating the layers of the muscles, tendons, or other tissues deep under your skin. This massage is less rhythmic than other types of massage but helps to relieve chronic patterns of tension and is a great option for those with muscle injuries, for example, back sprain. It encourages faster healing by improving blood flow and reducing inflammation in the body.

Techniques of Deep Tissue Massage

Effleurage

Effleurage is a technique in which our therapists press their hands rhythmically over the client’s body. It helps to stretch soft tissues, increase blood flow, and removes waste from the body. It is the first and last technique applied in massage therapy in a smooth and relaxed manner to put the client at ease and warm the superficial tissues.

Our therapists start with a light touch at the beginning of the massage session and then apply deeper pressure with slower movements to increase blood circulation in the body. This is followed by stretching of the tissues in the later stage of the massage.

Myofascial

Myofascial technique is a vital part of a Deep Tissue Massage. Under this, our therapists stretch the fascia and apply pressure to release its restrictions. They locate the fascia between the skin and the underlying structure of muscles and bones in the body. It helps to connect muscles, organs, and skeletal structures of the body.

Fascia can become restricted due to injuries, stress, trauma, poor lifestyle and posture. The technique is quite effective at providing relief.

Petrissage

Petrissage, also known as Kneading, is another technique which is used commonly in Deep Tissue Massage. It involves lifting, pressing squeezing and rolling the skin which helps relax soft tissue and stimulates blood flow and circulation. This technique has a more deeper and pain-relieving effect on the body compared to effleurage.

Trigger Point

Trigger Point is a popular technique under the Deep Tissue techniques umbrella. Therapists apply pressure to tender muscle tissues and correct muscular imbalances in the body. It helps relieve pain and dysfunction in the body related to injuries or accidents. This technique will not only remove muscle tension but promote healing as well.
