It uses slow, firm, sustained pressure to reach the deeper muscle and fascia layers, targeting chronic tension and knots rather than relaxation. Expect firm pressure and a 'good' ache, not sharp pain.

What is a deep tissue massage?
Deep tissue massage uses slow, firm, sustained pressure to reach the deeper layers of muscle and fascia — targeting chronic tension and knots rather than light relaxation. It's firm work: expect pressure and a 'good' ache, not sharp pain.
Does deep tissue massage hurt?
It should feel intense but bearable. Mild next-day soreness is normal, like after a workout; tell your therapist to ease off any time. Effective deep tissue doesn't have to be painful.
Deep tissue vs Swedish vs sports — which should I book?
Swedish for relaxation; deep tissue for chronic knots and specific tension; sports massage if you're training and want targeted, movement-focused work. If you're unsure and just want firm work on problem areas, deep tissue is the safe pick — and you can ask for lighter pressure any time.
