Deep tissue massage is a form of firm massage that is mainly used to treat musculoskeletal issues such as strains, back pain, neck pain and sports injuries. It is an offshoot of the traditional full body massage but aims to go deeper into muscles in order to correct problems and imbalances in specific body parts that may have been injured or overworked. It involves applying sustained pressure to the affected areas in order to target the inner layers of muscle and connective tissue. This helps in the breaking down of scar tissue that forms following an injury and helps in reducing tension in the muscle and tissue; all of which will help ease pain.

- Lowers blood pressure
- Relieves repetitive strain injuries
- Promotes better sleep
- Helps with sciatica pain.
Deep tissue massage is a more focalised form of massage therapy. Unlike other massage techniques that place a central focus on relaxation, deep tissue massage is designed to relieve pain cause by injuries, stress injuries and pain. While it is more of a medical treatment designed to treat pain, it can still help patients unwind and relax.
Deep tissue massage can also help in the healing process, as when a muscle becomes strained or tears, scar tissue forms on that muscle. Deep tissue massage aims to promote faster healing by using firm kneading to increase blood flow to the injured area and reducing inflammation.
If you are an athlete, or engage in physical activity such as running, or have an injury or chronic pain, you can greatly benefit from deep tissue massage. However, if you have a low pain threshold or are looking for light relief in tense muscles, we recommend a Swedish massage. Swedish massage is gentler and may be a better option for you. Please feel free to have a look at our Swedish massage page or get in touch with one of our professional masseurs to find the best massage therapy session for you.
Deep tissue massage can help treat or manage a variety of injuries and musculoskeletal issues, particularly those involving chronic tension, soft tissue damage, or overuse.

It’s like hitting the reset button for your body! Basically, our Crawley deep tissue massage therapists get right in there and work on those deeper muscle layers to help you say goodbye to annoying aches and tension.
You won’t believe how energising a deep tissue massage is! It can totally melt away muscle pain and let you move around way easier, like giving your body a fresh start. And don’t forget, it’s great for stress relief, improving your posture, and speeding up the healing of those exercise-related aches.
If a regular massage is like a gentle rain shower, then a deep tissue massage is more like a powerful waterfall! Our authentic Chinese therapists uses firmer pressure to reach those deeper muscle layers that need extra attention, rather than the lighter, relaxing strokes of a regular massage.
It might hurt or be uncomfortable in places. You’ve heard the phrase “No pain, no gain.”. Well, a deep tissue massage is rather like that. Your body has built up tension and knots in certain areas and this needs to be released. We can’t release anything properly without a little bit of discomfort. Our proven Tui Na massage techniques have been used and passed down over hundreds of years. This isn’t our first rodeo either. These techniques are proven to work. Our massage therapists will ask you if you are happy with the pressure being applied.
If you’re struggling with really tight muscle pain, whether you’re an athlete, healing from an injury, or just stressed out from your everyday life, you might want to give deep tissue massage a try—it’s really quite helpful!
We can definitely fit this into your schedule! Sessions can run from the quick 30-minute focused treatment up to a full-on 60-minute session, all depending on what your body needs. Call us to book a Deep Tissue Massage.
You may be a little sore following treatment (similar to the feeling after a good workout), but this generally subsides quickly. That said, if you have specific health conditions such as blood clots, it is better to discuss it with your doctor beforehand.
It’s all about what works best for you! If you’re tackling chronic pain, weekly visits might be your sweet spot. For maintenance, once a month could be perfect. We’ll help you figure out what schedule suits your needs.
Absolutely! Deep tissue massage can be a great ally in your recovery process. It helps to increase blood flow and decrease swelling, which gives your body’s natural healing process a little boost.
Drink loads of water (like you’re giving a plant a drink!), take it easy for the day, and forget about the heavy workout. This way, your body gets to really enjoy all the good stuff from your deep tissue massage.
