Deep Tissue Massage
Recommended: 60 min - £65 | 90 min - £90
This is a popular massage designed to address the innermost layers of your muscles and the surrounding connective tissue, known as myofascia.
GEM's objective is to effectively release deep rooted muscle tension and fascia knots, which are common issues behind chronic pain and restricted movement. By reducing strain on ligaments and tendons, this massage promotes a greater range of motion and enhances overall circulation. It also actively breaks down adhesions that form deep within tissues.
This specialised massage is particularly beneficial for targeting specific conditions like chronic back pain, persistent neck and scapular stiffness, sciatica, myofascial pain, and pain stemming from various injuries.
GEM applies slow sustained strokes with deep pressure, adjusting techniques to meet each client's unique requirements. Knots formed within the muscle and the myofascial can restrict the blood flow to the local area. GEM may incorporate focused work on Trigger Points to alleviate both direct and indirect pain.
This targeted approach supports the release of metabolic waste and optimises oxygen delivery within the muscle fibres. Trigger points, which manifest as deep, localised aching pain and stiffness, can arise from factors such as muscle overuse, metabolic waste accumulation, injury, poor posture, and stress.
An overloaded primary trigger point can even lead to complex referred pain patterns throughout the body. Deep Tissue Massage, along with Sports Massage, serves as a powerful tool for effective rehabilitation and recovery.
