Deep tissue massage

Deep Tissue Massage Bury St Edmunds: Deep tissue massage employs deeper, more focused pressure to tackle achy and knotted areas in deeper layers of muscle tissue.

Chronic deeply-held tension is released through slow, deep gliding pressure along or across muscle fibres, tendons and fascia, therefore breaking up adhesions caused by micro-scarring or injury, to ‘unstick’ and loosen knotted muscles. Deep tissue massage techniques increase blood and oxygen flow to tissues, keeping muscles supple.

Elbows, forearms and thumbs may be used to apply pressure and manipulate muscle tissue as well as flat hands. Christina will work with you throughout the deep tissue massage to make sure the pressure is comfortable. This treatment is still relaxing and plenty of soothing techniques are included.

Deep Tissue Massage works deeply into muscle tissue, therefore you may experience muscle soreness or discomfort after the massage. This is normal and you should feel better than ever within a couple of days.

• Encourages deep relaxation; relieves chronic muscular stress and tension
• Increases flexibility of soft tissue areas; loosens ‘stuck’ muscle fibres
• Relieves pain and restores mobility.

““Working shifts and wearing heavy body armour can have a detrimental effect on both sleep and wear and tear on my body. My back and shoulders take the brunt of this. Christina has worked brilliantly to alleviate those aches and pains. My sleep has also improved. Christina is professional, welcoming and knowledgeable. Her home studio is a lovely space with the woodburning stove adding to the relaxation. Highly recommended.” Stuart, Newmarket
