Why Should You Get Deep Tissue Massage?

You don’t feel well. Your body is aching and your muscles feel very tired. You know you need a good massage, but what kind? There are different types of massage and the one you should get must be the right one.

A therapist should know what you need when you tell him or her kind the of aches and pains you are feeling. If you are feeling muscle tension, you’ll be likely given a deep tissue massage.

Deep tissue massage is also helpful in eliminating scar tissue from an injury. During an injury, the stressed muscle can cause blockage of oxygen and nutrients. Hence, your muscles won’t get the nutrients they need to completely heal. It leads to inflammation and toxin build-up on the muscle tissue. As a result, you feel pain and muscles stress. 

This kind of massage will target the built up toxins and release it. Once the blockage has been broken down, the blood and oxygen will now flow smoothly like it should. Thus, enabling the muscles to heal better and avoiding any pains and muscle stress.

Deep tissue massage uses more pressure on the deep muscle tissues. It is what makes it different from the Swedish therapy. Also when targeting the deep tissue, the therapist will use elbows, fingers and may use some tools to penetrate deep within the muscles. The strokes are slower too, which is why sessions take longer than usual.

After a deep tissue massage session, you may feel some soreness afterwards. This is because of the pressure applied on your muscle tissues. It can be a little uncomfortable but it’s not something you cannot handle. Plus, the soreness will go away within two days. Nevertheless, even if more pressure is required, do tell the therapist if the pressure is too much for you that it is causing pain already. Severe pain can damage the muscle tissues more than heal them.

For people with chronic knots, it may take several sessions to completely release the knots. Also, there is a need for the patient to exercise, practice correct posture and relaxation techniques to fully recover from chronic knots.

Massage for the deep muscle tissue is very helpful for scar tissues and stressed muscle. It is important to remember that during sessions, you must breathe deeply to help bring more oxygen to your muscles, which will better improve the chances of your muscle tissues recovering after the sessions.
