Deep Tissue Massage
Don't expect to fall asleep during this treatment! Deep tissue massage will focus on your tension points using deep pressure
about
The perfect treatment for those who need a more intense massage, our Deep Tissue Massage focuses on the tightest knots in certain areas of the body to relieve tension and pain. Getting right to the source of the issue in the deeper tissues and muscles, the slow, deliberate strokes are effective at easing chronic pain and repetitive strain injuries, as well as arthritis. The firmer pressure is also useful for postural issues and muscle tightness.
