Deep Tissue Massage Sarasota

Many people turn to deep tissue massage because of its pain-relieving properties. While other types of massage are used for both relaxation and the associated health benefits, this treatment methodology is used almost exclusively for the therapeutic effects. If you’re recovering from an injury or managing chronic pain of any type, the licensed massage therapists at your local Massage Heights in Sarasota are available to help.

Massage Heights: Deep Tissue Massage in Sarasota
Our Deep Tissue Massage in Sarasota generally covers the entire body with a primary focus on your problem areas. The massage therapist uses concentrated pressure and long, slow movements to reach the deepest regions of the muscle fibers. Deep tissue massage addresses the adhesions people commonly get in their muscles, ligaments, and tendons due to injuries or extended periods of heavy use. If you carry a lot of tension in your body due to stress, this can also lead to excessive soreness over time. These stiff bands of tissue cause a number of painful problems including:
• Chronic Pain
• Troublesome Inflammation
• Restricted Range of Motion
• Decreased Circulation
The licensed massage therapists at Massage Heights use deep tissue massage to break down these painful adhesions to reduce chronic pain levels, improve circulation, and increase flexibility.

Take an Active Role in Your Session
For the best results deep tissue massage should involve a partnership between the client and the massage therapist. Prior to each session, your Sarasota therapist will spend a few minutes discussing your problem areas and pain levels. Although this establishes a starting point, tell her if you would like her to vary the pressure levels or adjust her technique as the session progresses. It is especially important to report any new discomfort as well as any increase in existing pain as it occurs. To stimulate the body’s tissues at the deepest possible level, your therapist may use her forearm, elbow, or knuckles in addition to her hands and fingers. 

Some clients prefer to use a combination of massage techniques during each session. This could involve deep tissue massage to alleviate trouble spots and a more relaxing approach for the rest of the body. If you would like to incorporate elements of Swedish massage, hot stone therapy, or any other type of treatment, simply let your therapist know, and she will tailor each massage to meet your individual needs. With your input, this alternative healthcare option can be the key to a healthier, pain-free you. 

Deep Tissue Massage and Your Health
Although most clients seek a deep tissue massage in Sarasota for its regenerative and pain-fighting powers, this type of treatment provides all of the health benefits of a traditional massage including improved circulation and decreased stress levels. To further combat your pain and produce a sense of overall well-being, deep tissue massage also increases your natural supply of endorphins, the body’s own pain reliever. Many patients find that this alternative-treatment method provides a substantial level of relief for a variety of conditions including repetitive-use injuries, fibromyalgia, and limited range of motion.

Instead of filling your body with harsh medications, try the all-natural relief that can be experienced with a deep tissue massage. The licensed massage therapists at the Sarasota Massage Heights location are waiting to help. If you or a loved one has any type of chronic pain, call to schedule an appointment that fits in with your busy schedule.
