Deep Tissue Massage
Targeted pressure for stubborn knots and chronic tension
Deep tissue is for the spots that don't loosen up no matter how much you stretch. Slow, focused pressure into the muscle bellies, the attachments, and the connective tissue that's been locked up for months — sometimes years. Done well, it should feel intense but not bracing. We work with your body, not against it.

What to expect
- 01Detailed intake — where it hurts, what makes it worse, what you've already tried.
- 02Slow, sustained pressure into the problem areas. We breathe through the intensity.
- 03I check in often — pressure should feel productive, never punishing.
- 04Drink water after. You may feel like you had a workout for a day or two — that's normal.
Common questions
Does deep tissue have to hurt to work?
No. Pain makes muscles guard, which is the opposite of what we want. Productive pressure feels like 'good intensity' you can breathe into. If you're flinching, the pressure is too much and we back off.
Will I be sore the next day?
Often, yes — similar to a workout. Drink water, move gently, and it usually passes within 24-48 hours. The relief on the other side is the point.
