Deep Tissue Massage in Wilton Manors

Deep tissue is great for healing tissue that is very tight or injured. Deep pressure and deep tissue massage are two different things. Swedish massage can use deep pressure but is not deep tissue. Deep tissue massage is the concentration of deep pressure on a small area at a time, typically using elbow or fist. DT does not necessarily have to cause pain, but a seven on a scale from one to ten pain scale optimizes the effect that it can have on the body.

Deep Tissue is the common term for Structural Integration. Deep Tissue is the deep manipulation of the body’s fascia, a specialized system of the body involving widely distributed connective tissue that creates the body’s supportive network. The superficial layer of fascia is often compared to a knit sweater that wraps the entire body to explain how fascia links all body regions together. Deeper fascia separates individual structures without losing the cohesion between them. For example, it wraps individual muscle fibers, fascicles, and individual muscles and then weaves them to tendons to attach muscle to bone. It provides the underlying supportive structure of blood vessels, lymph vessels, and nerves, defines the shape of organs, and tethers them in their proper places within the body

Imbalance in the Fascial System can cause poor posture and challenge physical coordination. Deep Tissue Massage can often reverse the effects of pulling on bone and muscle by the fascia. Effects are achieved in blocks of sessions, preferably 10 in a month or less. A full body analysis before and after a block of sessions will determine the results of the treatment.

This modality can always be combined with other types of massage like Swedish and hot stone massage. It is therapeutic in nature and is usually applied to the legs, arms, neck and back.
