Deep Tissue Massage  a Quick Guide

Deep tissue massage is a general term for different styles of massage that focus on the body's deeper muscles and connective tissues. The client disrobes, sometimes only the clothes covering the torso, and lays facedown on a massage table. The therapist uses lotion to relieve friction, and applies deep-kneading movements to realign muscles. Rolfing, Trager, Hellerwork and Feldenkrais are all forms of deep-tissue massage. Deep tissue massage is usually used to correct damage from some kind of injury, such as whiplash or back strain.
