Like the Swedish massage, deep tissue massage comes with several benefits, but one advantage that comes with deep tissue massage is released chronic muscle tension. The focus of this massage is on the deep layers of tendons, muscle tissue, and fascia, or the protective tissue surrounding bones, joints, and muscles.

What to Consider Before a Deep Tissue Massage
While deep tissue massage is meant to help relieve pain, it’s important to keep in mind that this type of massage is intended for therapy and rehabilitation as opposed to relaxation. So, you can expect a certain level of discomfort during the massage and for a brief period immediately following the massage.
You’ll likely experience a small level of pain during the massage because of the massage’s focus on relieving tension and stress in deep tissue that takes more effort to reach. Deep tissue massage also works against the muscles instead of moving with them, which further results in discomfort. All this discomfort will ultimately pay off as pain and stress go away over time following the massage.
