What is Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep tissue massage is a therapeutic technique that focuses on manipulating the deeper layers of muscle and fascia (the connective tissue surrounding muscles). Unlike a traditional Swedish massage, which is more focused on relaxation, deep tissue massage uses slower, more forceful strokes to address specific areas of tension and pain.

What to Expect During Your Deep Tissue Massage

Your deep tissue massage session at Stephen Ashley LMT will begin with a brief consultation to discuss your needs and any specific areas of pain or tension. Our therapist will then use a combination of slow, deep strokes and targeted pressure to work through the layers of muscle and connective tissue.


It’s normal to experience some discomfort during a deep tissue massage, especially if you have a lot of muscle tension. However, this discomfort should not be painful. Communication with your therapist is key; let them know if the pressure is too intense or if you need adjustments.


After your massage, you may feel some soreness for a day or two, similar to the feeling after a good workout. This is a normal part of the healing process. Drinking plenty of water and doing gentle stretches can help ease any post-massage soreness.
