Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage involves systematic application of deep and intense pressure on soft tissues with the aim of releasing tension. Using fists, elbows and forearms, it serves the purpose of working on different layers of soft tissues with the aim of relieving pain caused by rigid fascia. Rest assured Maureen will pay significant attention to assessing and applying the level of pressure that you're comfortable with. Deep tissue massage is beneficial in:

• Reducing muscle tension and stiffness

• Increasing physical movement and flexibility

• Relieving physical discomfort and pain

• Breaking down fibrous bands between tissues

• Enhancing recovery from physical injuries

​

Trigger Point Therapy

A trigger point is a point in your body characterized by knots that lead to pain in other body parts. Trigger point therapy focuses on the trigger point and the area around it to break down the knots and assist in easing the pain or discomfort caused due to them. Benefits of trigger point therapy include:

​

• Improved athletic performance
