Many clients searching for deep tissue massage in Cronulla assume that a good deep tissue treatment needs to be extremely firm or painful.

That isn't necessarily the case.

What Is Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep tissue massage generally refers to techniques that work deeper layers of muscle and soft tissue.

The amount of pressure required depends on the individual, the area being treated, and the treatment goal.

Does Deep Tissue Massage Have to Hurt?

No.

Extreme pressure is not automatically more effective.

Your therapist should work at an appropriate level of pressure and communicate with you throughout treatment.

Some areas may feel tender, particularly where there is muscular tension, but sharp or excessive pain should not be part of massage.

Deep Tissue and Remedial Massage

Your therapist can incorporate deep tissue massage into a remedial massage treatment, but it is only one technique among many.

Depending on your assessment, your therapist may combine deeper work with myofascial techniques, trigger point work, stretching, or other appropriate techniques.
