Aliyah Deep Tissue Massage Therapy

What is Deep Tissue Massage Therapy?

​

Deep Tissue Massage Therapy targets deeper muscle layers and connective tissue to relieve chronic pain, improve posture, and break down adhesions. It addresses acute/sub-acute/, and chronic musculoskeletal conditions caused by poor posture or overuse.

​

Techniques We Use:

• Deep pressure for muscle realignment

• Myofascial release for scar tissue

• Trigger point therapy for knots

• Slower, focused strokes for lasting elasticity

​

Sweet Pain Note:

Pressure is progressive - communicate if too intense. We check in throughout.

​

Integrated Program: Combine with regular sessions, exercise, and posture analysis for best results.

​​

• Deep pressure should result in what we like to call “sweet pain”. If the pressure becomes uncomfortable or makes you hold your breath, it is most likely too much. Our Aliyah Massage Therapists will check in with you throughout the treatment, but you should always feel free to communicate with your therapist if you would like the pressure adjusted.

​

• Releasing chronic knots and tension that have accumulated over time is best achieved with an integrated program that includes regular Aliyah Massage Therapy treatments, exercise, posture analysis, and relaxation techniques. Thus, it is important to remember that increasing pressure and pain will not necessarily eliminate knots in a single treatment. Think about how long it took to get into your current situation. Nothing sustainable was ‘built in a day’. As such, your body will most likely not be ‘rebuilt’ in one session. Each treatment serves as a building block that helps you return to a more normal level of function.

​​

• Aliyah Deep Tissue Massage Therapy works in conjunction with Aliyah Myofascial Release Therapy and Aliyah Trigger Point techniques. These techniques can also be added to any Aliyah Massage, Aliyah Pregnancy Massage or Aliyah Sports Massage.
