Deep Tissue Massage at Stephen Ashley, LMT
At Stephen Ashley, LMT, I’ve seen firsthand how deep tissue massage helps clients return to a more energized, pain-free life. Here's how it can help you too.
- It Targets the Root of the Pain
Unlike lighter massage styles, deep tissue techniques reach into the deeper layers of muscle and fascia. This helps release long-held tension and painful trigger points, especially in high-stress areas like your neck, shoulders, and lower back.
- It Improves Circulation and Recovery
Deep tissue massage encourages better blood flow throughout the body. Increased circulation delivers oxygen and nutrients to sore or damaged muscles, accelerating your body’s natural healing process while reducing inflammation.
- It Restores Flexibility and Posture
When muscle tissue gets tight or develops adhesions, it can throw off your entire alignment. Deep tissue massage gently breaks up these restrictions, restoring natural movement and balance. Many clients notice improved posture and fewer daily aches.
- It Releases Stress Stored in the Body
Massage doesn’t just relax your mind — it resets your nervous system. Deep pressure signals the body to release endorphins and melt away physical tension. You’ll walk away feeling grounded, calm, and reconnected with yourself.
- It Offers Long-Term Relief Without Medication
Tired of taking pain relievers that only mask the symptoms? Deep tissue massage provides natural, long-term relief. With consistent sessions, you can address the underlying issues and reduce dependency on medications.
