What Is Deep Tissue Massage?
Feeling tight, sore, or stuck in your body? Deep tissue massage is a targeted technique that works on the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. Using slow, firm pressure, it helps break down adhesions (knots), relieve chronic tension, and restore mobility. While some pressure may feel intense, the goal is to release long-held tension and support the body’s natural healing process, not to cause pain. Sessions are always tailored to your comfort level and always adapted to your tolerance.
Who It’s For
Ideal for those looking for a deeper treatment that goes beyond relaxation, deep tissue massage is especially beneficial for individuals dealing with persistent pain or injuries. Perfect for:
Chronic muscle pain or stiffness.
Sports injuries or overuse.
Postural imbalances.
Repetitive strain (e.g., from desk work or physical labour).
Recovery from physical trauma.
What to Expect
Deep tissue massage can benefit a wide range of individuals, particularly those with chronic pain, injuries, or those engaged in physically demanding activities. It's also helpful for people experiencing stress, anxiety, and postural problems. Relief Recall customizes each massage session to your needs and preferences, combining therapeutic techniques with a calming environment. Sessions may include:
-
Focused work on specific muscle groups.
-
Firm pressure using hands, forearms, elbows, or tools.
-
Optional Hot stones, Cupping, Gua Sha or Bamboo massage tool (1–2 included).
-
Heated massage table and heat pad.
