You should talk to your doctor before having a deep tissue massage if:

• You take blood thinners or have a clotting or bleeding disorder
• You are undergoing treatment for recent surgery or chemotherapy
• You suffer from nerve damage
• You have any skin conditions
• You have wounds that haven’t healed completely
• You have a hernia

This is entirely up to you. If you’ve experienced a deep tissue massage and felt the benefits, then you might decide it’s worth doing regularly - or even just the once so you could know what it’s like and if it’s something you’d be interested in again.

You might feel they aren’t for you, in which case you might be more interested in other types of massage treatment, including:

• Swedish massage
• Hot stone massage
• Thai massage
• Lymphatic massage
• Shiatsu massage

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.
