Deep Tissue Massage Techniques

Our therapists at Massage Heights Sherman Oaks employ a range of techniques to ensure effective results:

Slow Strokes: Applied with firm pressure to reach deeper muscle layers.
Friction: Targeted movements to break down adhesions and improve circulation.
Trigger Point Therapy: Focuses on specific areas of tension to relieve pain.

How Deep Tissue Massage Works

Deep tissue massage works by applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduces tension in muscle and tissue. It may also promote faster healing by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation.

Deep Tissue Massage vs Swedish Massage

While both deep tissue and Swedish massage aim to relax and rejuvenate, they differ in technique and intensity:

Pressure Levels: Deep tissue massage uses more intense pressure compared to the gentle strokes of Swedish massage.
Focus Areas: Deep tissue targets deeper muscle layers, while Swedish massage focuses on surface muscles.
Purpose: Deep tissue is ideal for chronic pain and tension, whereas Swedish is perfect for relaxation and stress relief.

Athletes often experience muscle fatigue and injuries due to intense physical activity. Deep tissue massage can be particularly beneficial for athletes by:

Enhancing flexibility and range of motion.
Reducing muscle soreness and stiffness.
Preventing injuries by maintaining muscle health.
Improving overall athletic performance.
