Deep tissue massage uses more pressure than a Swedish massage.

Deep tissue massage uses more pressure than a Swedish massage. It’s a good option if you have muscle problems, such as:
soreness
injury
imbalance
tightness
chronic muscle pain
During a deep tissue massage, your massage therapist will use slow strokes and deep finger pressure to relieve tension from the deepest layers of your muscles and connective tissues. You can be naked during this massage or wear your underwear.
The massage will last 60 to 90 minutes.
