Deep Tissue Massage I/Myofascial Release

Deep Tissue Massage is one of the most popular modalities currently available. For proper function, muscles must be able to slide over each other freely - stress, strain, injury or even bad posture can compress the muscle layers and restrict movement. Deep tissue works on the muscles layer by layer, freeing compression and providing uninhibited motion.

Deep Tissue Massage brings a higher level of freedom and responsiveness to the body. The skilled deep tissu therapist can mold a client's tissue to a state of improved health and fluidity!
