Question 1

How do you prepare for a deep tissue massage?

Accepted Answer

To prepare for your deep tissue massage, one of the most important things is to avoid eating a heavy meal or drinking a lot of liquids before the treatment. A deep tissue massage involves intense pressure being applied to your body, which can be uncomfortable on a full stomach.

Otherwise, the main thing you should do is get yourself in a relaxed state of mind and body, so the massage can be as effective as possible. Try to arrive early so you can let yourself unwind before your massage starts.

Question 2

What happens when you get a deep tissue massage?

Accepted Answer

When you get a deep tissue massage, your therapist will ask which area of your body you want them to focus on. There is no standard method - the treatment should be tailored to your specific needs, but all therapists will have their own individual styles too.

You’ll be asked to lay on the massage table, either on your front, back or side depending on what area is being massaged. Your therapist might begin lightly at first to warm up your muscles, before moving on to the areas of focus.

This will involve deep pressure being applied slowly with hands, arms and elbows to release your contracted muscles and tissues. The time it takes to complete the treatment can vary, but it will normally be between one and two hours.

Question 4

How often should you get a deep tissue massage?

Accepted Answer

There are no hard and fast rules on how often you should get a deep tissue massage - it’s more about what feels right for you and what provides the most benefits. This could be daily, a few times a week, every month - whatever makes you feel comfortable.

Remember you can always ask your therapist to recommend a treatment plan, as their expertise means they’ll know how to address the underlying issues you may be suffering from.

Question 5

How much does a deep tissue massage cost?

Accepted Answer

A deep tissue massage typically costs between MX$750 and MX$1,500 for a 60-minute session. Fresha shows upfront pricing before you book.

Question 6

Does a deep tissue massage break up fat?

Accepted Answer

Deep tissue massages offer a range of benefits, from improved circulation and blood pressure to better sleep and a healthier mind. However, there is currently very little evidence to directly link deep tissue massages to the breakdown of fat.

That doesn’t mean a deep tissue massage, or any kind of massage, can’t be used as part of a well-rounded approach to weight loss. If it makes you feel better both mentally and physically that can only help!

Question 7

Is deep tissue massage painful?

Accepted Answer

Deep tissue massage uses more pressure than a relaxation massage and can be intense, particularly over knotted or tight areas. Most people feel some discomfort during treatment but significant relief afterwards. Always communicate with your therapist about pressure levels.
