Connective | Deep Tissue Massage

Deep connective tissue massage is a form of intense massage therapy that aims to release myofascial (connective tissue) restrictions in the body, and to break up any restrictive scar tissue. Connective tissue massage (deep tissue massage) has also been known to help relieve chronic tension, to increase the bodys range of motion, to improve posture and to enhance the natural harmony of the entire body and mind.

Deep connective tissue massage is also said to restore the length and flexibility to the fascia (the fiberous tissue that surrounds the muscles and organs), by normalizing the tissue and by improving the strength and overall health of the entire fascial system (connective tissues throughout the entire body).

Unlike classic massage therapy, which is used for relaxation and as a way to deal with stress and tension, deep tissue massage usually focuses on a specific problem, such as:

• Chronic pain
• Limited mobility
• Recovery from injuries like whiplash, falls, or a sports injury
• Repetitive strain injury, such as carpal tunnel syndrome
• Postural problems
• Ostearthritis pain
• Fibromyalgia
• Muscle tension or spasm
