DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE
Deep Tissue Massage is an ancient healing art using the manipulation of soft body tissue, muscles and joints for therapeutic purposes. It can re-energise the body restoring vitality and promotes a degree of self-healing. It can relax tired muscles, reduce pain and fatigue, help digestion, joint problems and lower the blood pressure.
The deep pressure, friction and slow strokes, either following or going across the muscle fibres, tendons and facia, aim to release chronic patterns of tension in the body. When muscles are stressed, they block oxygen and nutrients to the area, leading to inflammation that builds up as toxins in the tissue. A Deep Tissue Massage can help to get the blood and oxygen circulating properly. Extremely beneficial to your health, and also important for the sports person, both for the prevention and treatment of injuries. It warms and loosens muscles, increasing blood and lymph flow, encouraging the amount of oxygen and nutrients to the muscle fibre, resulting in the removal of metabolic waste allowing the muscles to repair, enabling the body to train more effectively and efficiently.
After a massage it is very important to drink plenty of water to
help eliminate these toxins from the body and to hydrate the system.
The benefits of massage are cumulative, and regular massage can provide continued relaxation long after each massage has finished, so massage can be helpful in the long-term reduction of all stress-related symptoms.
Massage creates the supreme balance, bringing peace to a troubled mind, and relief to a tense body.
