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.

Not only can a masseuse or massage therapist feel tension - they should! They’re professionally trained to find and release tension in your body using techniques like compression.

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.

A deep tissue massage uses slow, firm strokes and deep pressure to target the inner layers of muscle tissue and connective tissue. It is designed to break up scar tissue, relieve chronic muscle tension, and address musculoskeletal issues such as strains and sports injuries.

The reason a deep tissue massage can leave lingering pain and discomfort is because they involve intense physical pressure on your body. It’s completely normal for the soreness to last for a day or even two or three!
