Deep Tissue Massage is used in treating chronic muscular tension through direct deep-seated pressure and slow strokes, applying across the grain of the muscles not with the grain. The pressure should be firm enough for you to feel benefit, but not extreme discomfort. Please inform your therapist if the pressure isn’t to your liking. Call us on 0800 774 7307 for advice on the best course or treatment for you if you are unsure which massage is right for you.
