At Keen As Sports Therapy in Dunedin, NZ, our deep tissue massage targets chronic muscle pain and tension that many people experience from overuse, poor posture, or stress. If you're dealing with tight, stiff muscles or deep-seated pain, we use slow, firm strokes and deep pressure to break down muscle knots, alleviate tension, and promote overall muscle health.
What Is Deep Tissue Massage?
Deep tissue massage involves applying deep pressure to reach the inner layers of muscles and connective tissues. The aim is to break down scar tissue, release tension, and enhance muscle flexibility. Unlike lighter forms of massage, deep tissue therapy involves using firm pressure to work through the muscle fibres, making it especially effective for treating chronic pain and injuries.
Benefits of Deep Tissue Massage
Pain Relief: If you’ve been dealing with persistent muscle pain, deep tissue massage can help release built-up tension and alleviate discomfort.
Improved Circulation: By breaking down muscle adhesions and knots, deep tissue massage provides better blood flow to tissues, aiding in muscle healing and recovery.
Enhanced Flexibility: Loosening tight muscles and increasing mobility can improve flexibility and range of motion, which is critical for overall physical health.
Stress Reduction: Although deep tissue massage targets deeper layers of muscle, the technique also helps minimise mental stress and improve emotional well-being by relaxing the body.
Deep tissue massage is particularly useful for individuals who have long-term muscle tightness or pain from physical activities, sitting for extended periods, or experiencing chronic stress.
