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.
