Deep tissue massage (DTM) is a massage aimed at removing tension in the myofascial system by relaxing, lengthening and making the tissues more elastic. It is made without the use of olive oil or with its minimum amount to better affect the fascia. Deep massage can be performed passively or with active participation of the patient, i.e. the therapist massages and the patient performs movement. During this massage, trigger points are also removed, i.e. excessively strained muscle fibers, which during pressure cause a lot of pain that can radiate. It is an unpleasant feeling, but it brings a quick effect. Already after the first massage, patients feel a marked improvement and relief.
Ailments are eliminated thanks to deep tissue massage:
– neck and neck pain
– headaches
– stinging under the shoulder blade
– widow’s hump
– muscle tension after overtraining
– restrictions on the range of motion in the joints (caused by muscle contracture)
– injuries caused by muscular imbalance
– muscle aches during training.
Regular use of such a massage combined with stretching and rolling on a self-massage roller effectively relieves all tensions in the body and makes the muscles more elastic. It is recommended for people with a sedentary lifestyle as well as those who are physically active.
