Indulgence for body and mind
Deep tissue massages are not only relaxing — they also help “lengthen and release muscles” that frequently feel tense and get stuck in uncomfortable holding patterns.
Deep tissue massage therapy is a type of firm, manipulative practice that uses pressure and movement to release deep layers of tissue, including tendons and fascia (the protective layer surrounding muscles, bones and joints).
Compared to Swedish massage or relaxation massage, deep tissue massage uses more pressure, is usually slower and can last for a longer duration.
“If you want to relax, watch the clouds pass by if you’re laying on the grass, or sit in front of the creek; just doing nothing and having those still moments is what really rejuvenates the body…”.
