Deep Tissue Massage is for the full body or can be focused to a particular area and goes much deeper into the tissue than the classic Swedish Massage. This massage targets the inner layers of your muscles, tendons, and other connective tissue and promotes healing in those deeper tissues. It increases blood flow and reduces inflammation. Deep Tissue Massage is excellent for people with injures and people with chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia. Your massage therapist may use her elbows and tools such as bamboo sticks as well has her hands to relieve tension and facilitate healing.
