What is Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep Tissue Massage focuses on realigning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. Using slow, firm strokes and focused pressure, our therapists work to break down adhesions—bands of rigid tissue that can disrupt circulation, cause pain, and limit motion.

Deep tissue techniques are especially effective for chronic aches and pains, including:

  • Neck and upper back pain

  • Low back pain

  • Shoulder tightness

  • Leg muscle tension

  • Postural problems

  • Repetitive strain injuries

What is Trigger Point Therapy?

Trigger Point Therapy targets “knots” or hyper-irritable spots within muscle fibers. These trigger points can cause referred pain, tightness, and decreased range of motion. Our licensed massage therapists use precise pressure and release techniques to:

  • Relieve pain at its source

  • Reduce referred pain in other areas

  • Improve flexibility and muscle function

Trigger point therapy is often integrated with deep tissue massage for optimal results.

Benefits of Deep Tissue & Trigger Point Therapy

Deep Tissue & Trigger Point Therapy isn’t just about relaxation—it’s about long-term relief and functional improvement.

Whether you’re managing old injuries, living with chronic pain, or seeking relief from the stresses of daily life, our team customizes every session to your unique needs.

What to Expect During Your Session

At the start of your session, your therapist will review your health history, discuss any areas of pain or stiffness, and talk through your treatment goals. This helps us tailor each massage to your specific needs—whether you're dealing with chronic pain, recent injury, or muscle tension from daily stress. Every session is a partnership between you and your therapist, designed to promote recovery and prevent future discomfort.

During the massage, your therapist will apply deep, focused pressure to tight muscle groups and trigger points. While this type of bodywork can be intense at times, we always prioritize your comfort and encourage open communication. It's normal to feel some tenderness after the session, especially if the muscles have been tight for a long time. Many patients notice immediate improvements in pain relief, range of motion, and relaxation, with continued benefits as the body heals in the days following treatment.

Take the first step toward lasting relief.

If you're tired of living with chronic pain, tight muscles, or limited mobility, our team is here to help. With focused, therapeutic bodywork, we’ll target the root of your discomfort and help your body function at its best.
