deep tissue massage
Intense muscle therapy
Deep tissue massage is a therapeutic technique using firm pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue.
It targets chronic tension and adhesions, often causing temporary discomfort: The deep tissue massage hurt during the session but relieved my back pain for weeks.
Distinguished from gentler Swedish massage.
