Targeted Deep Tissue Massage for Chronic Pain Relief

Deep Tissue Massage is a specialized technique that focuses on realigning the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue (fascia). Unlike lighter massage styles, this approach moves slower and uses more concentrated pressure to reach the sub-layer of muscles where chronic tension and pain often reside.

If you suffer from stiff necks, lower back tightness, or sore shoulders that never seem to go away, Deep Tissue Massage at WoVe MT in Bradford can help break the cycle of pain.

Treating Common Areas of Tension (Neck, Back, Shoulders)

Chronic Lower Back Pain: Often caused by prolonged sitting or heavy lifting.
Neck and Shoulder Tension: Breaking down the “tech neck” stiffness from computer work.
Leg and Glute Tightness: relieving tension in the IT bands, hamstrings, and calves, common in runners and athletes.
Repetitive Strain: alleviating tightness in forearms and elbows.

How Deep Tissue Massage Differs from Relaxation

  While Deep Tissue Massage can be relaxing, the primary goal is structural change. The strokes are slower and more deliberate to allow the tissue to soften and accept the pressure.

Does it hurt? There is a misconception that deep tissue massage must be painful to be effective. While you may feel some discomfort as we work through tight areas (often described as “good pain”), the treatment should never be unbearable. As an RMT, I constantly communicate with you to ensure the pressure is strong enough to be effective but safe for your body.
