Deep Tissue Massage (DTM) is an often doctor-recommended therapy particularly beneficial for those with contracted areas — stiff necks, nagging upper back pain, leg and shoulder soreness — and sufferers of chronic pain. Using deep finger pressure and slow, measured strokes, DTM achieves two primary goals: the realignment of deep layers of muscle with their surrounding connective tissue, and the breaking apart of bands of adhesions that form deep within muscles.
Performed properly, DTM is an effective therapy for pain reduction and injury recovery. Many common injuries best treated by DTM are those that occur from repetitive motions, such as carpal tunnel syndrome and tennis elbow. Some patients experience initial pain and discomfort during and immediately following DTM procedures, but pain generally subsides within 24 hours and healing begins.

“…the kind of bodywork I need does not come with slippery lavender creams and oily feet. Instead, it comes with other-worldly, freakishly powerful Todd thumbs, elbows, and forearms. It comes with swearing and some tears, but in the end, I get relief and can get on with my life and my own work.
