What Is Deep Tissue Massage Therapy and How Does It Work?

Deep tissue massage therapy is a targeted treatment that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. Unlike a Swedish massage, which emphasizes overall relaxation, deep tissue massage uses slower, more deliberate strokes and firm pressure to address chronic muscle tension and restricted mobility.

By working through the surface layers and reaching deep into fascia and muscle tissue, this technique helps break up adhesions, reduce inflammation, and restore circulation. It’s especially effective for guests dealing with tight shoulders, back pain, or repetitive stress areas.

Deep Tissue Massage Techniques Used Across Our Spa Locations

At Bella Santé, our experienced massage therapists use a range of deep tissue techniques designed to relieve chronic tension and restore natural movement. Each session begins with a gentle warm up to prepare the muscles, followed by slow, focused strokes and sustained pressure that reach deep layers of muscle and fascia.

We use a combination of advanced methods, including:

-Trigger point therapy to release localized knots and persistent muscle tightness

-Myofascial release to reduce connective tissue restrictions and improve flexibility

-Cross-fiber friction to break up adhesions and support healing in overused areas

Every treatment is personalized to your body’s needs whether you're recovering from intense activity, managing chronic stress, or simply seeking deeper relief. Our goal is to help you move more freely, feel more balanced, and experience lasting results.

FAQ

Deep tissue massage can involve firm pressure, especially on areas of chronic tension, but it should never be painful. Our licensed therapists work within your comfort level and will check in throughout the session to ensure the experience is therapeutic and relaxing.

You may feel lighter, more relaxed, or mildly sore. Similar to how you might feel after a workout. Drinking water and resting afterward can help your body recover and enhance the benefits.

Arrive hydrated and allow a few minutes before your session to relax. Wear comfortable clothing and communicate openly with your therapist about any areas of tension or sensitivity.
