Deep Tissue Massage is a deep manipulation of muscle and fascia, also known as the connective tissues. Deep Tissue Massage is similar to Swedish Massage but is more intense, concentrated more in specific areas of concern, and reaches deeper into the connective structure using increased pressure combined with slower strokes.

Deep Tissue Massage can be useful in releasing knotted muscles, muscles under tension, and muscles in spasm. This helps increase circulation and range of motion. Deep Tissue Massage is often used to treat areas with chronic muscle tension such as necks, lower backs, and shoulders.
