Frequently Asked Questions
Will deep tissue massage be painful?
While deep tissue involves intense pressure, it should never be 'painful' in a way that causes you to hold your breath. We work within your comfort levels to ensure the pressure is productive and therapeutic.
How long will I feel sore after a deep tissue session?
It is normal to feel some muscular tenderness for 24 to 48 hours after treatment, similar to the feeling after a workout. Staying hydrated helps speed up this recovery process.
Can deep tissue help with my old surgical scar tissue?
Yes. By using slow, cross-fiber friction, we can help soften and realign old adhesions, which often restores mobility that was lost after surgery.
Do I need to do anything specific to prepare for this massage?
We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and ensuring you have a quiet space at home. Avoid eating a heavy meal immediately before your session.
Is one session enough to fix my chronic knots?
While you will feel significant relief after one session, chronic tension usually requires a series of treatments to fully retrain the muscle tissue and fascia.
