Deep Tissue Massage, Dubai

There might be times when a simple relaxation massage therapy is not enough in order for you to get rid of muscle soreness and particular types of aches and pains. In such cases, a detoxifying deep tissue massage might be exactly what you need!

Looking for a 'deep tissue massage near me'? Prime Spa in Deira is the best European and Russian massage center and spa in Dubai, and its massage therapists will gladly provide you with deep tissue massage therapy or any other type of massage.

By reading this article, you will be able to understand whether or not you should book yourself a deep massage session, as it is definitely not the kind of experience that suits everybody.

101 on Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage is a special massage technique aimed at people with certain muscular problems that cannot be taken away with a simple Swedish massage, such as sports injuries and other chronic aches.

While Swedish massage is thought of as relaxing massage therapy, deep tissue massage provided by your masseuse together with massage oil or lotion might not feel the same way to you on your first try.

Deep tissue massage uses slow and deep strokes in order not only to improve circulation but also to target deeper layers of your muscles and connective tissues that it has. Sports injury forms scar tissue inside of your muscle, which is why a massage therapist should apply bigger and slower pressure in order to reach that part of your tight muscles and help you break muscle knots made by your strenuous activity. For the same reason, your therapist might use not only palms but elbows as well.

And, of course, any type of body therapy, deep tissue massage included, will help you improve your blood flow and reduce neuromuscular pain symptoms after your session.

Firm pressure applied during your deep tissue massage therapy does not mean that you will not be able to relax. You will feel stress relief after your session, but you also need to be prepared for this type of massage therapy as it is not as pleasant at first as most other ones are.

Deep tissue massage is an especially good practice for people with the following health conditions:

• fibromyalgia;
• high blood pressure;
• tennis elbow;
• plantar fasciitis;
• sciatica;
• various sports-related injuries.

So if you have muscle soreness received from day-to-day activities, then it might be better to book a Swedish massage that uses essential oils and gliding strokes instead of a deep tissue massage therapy with its more painful massage tools and techniques.

Such a healing massage might work for people with a low pain threshold, but all in all, the amount of pressure received from a deep tissue massage should be left for more serious problems or for people that already got used to Swedish massage and need something bolder in order for relieving muscle tension or lower back pain and reach the state of harmony between body and mind.

Your massage therapist will start with a light pressure massage that will increase intensity when your muscles are warmed up. And during your session, your massage therapist should always ask you about your preferences, as deep tissue massage could be done on a full body or just some particular part to aid recovery when needed the most.

Make your therapist aware of your injury and the level of pain you feel so that no additional harm could be done to it.

Deep Tissue Massage Benefits

As with any other type of massage, sports massage therapy done by a licensed massage therapist has its own perks that could be received from it.

Here is the list of numerous benefits that sports massage therapy can bring to you:

• It can help you to reduce stress and reach a level of deep relaxation. By activating your parasympathetic system, sports massage relieves muscle tension, improves blood pressure, accelerates your lymphatic system, and works through your scar tissue. All of that will definitely help you relax, get rid of low back pain and improve your performance as an athlete as well.
• Improves your body's healing abilities. Sports massage that is aimed at deeper layers of your tight muscles will help you detox your body and heal from different traumas and intense workouts much faster. Thanks to accelerated lymph and blood circulation, you will feel less chronic pain after your training and will have a lower probability of receiving additional injuries. As you can see, sports massage is a great way to prevent injury in the future.
• There are also psychological benefits of sports massage therapy. As with any other type of massage, by stimulating tense muscles with the massage techniques and intense pressure that is used during a deep tissue massage, your entire body will be relaxed, and you will reach a mind-body balance with all of your stresses going away together with headache and muscle pain.

However, all of these benefits cannot be brought to you after just one deep tissue massage therapy, especially to those of you who have come not for a regular oil massage but for healing therapy for your muscles and the tension and pain that you experience with them on a day-to-day basis.

The benefits of massage therapy like this one will require a lot of patience from you so that you would relieve all of your pains slowly and without any additional muscle problems brought to you because of unnecessary rush decisions. Experienced therapists of Prime Spa in Deira would tell you the same thing!

When to Avoid Deep Tissue Massage

You will probably feel a bit of soreness in your muscles after your first deep tissue massage session. There are times when deep tissue massage may be a little too much for you, depending on certain conditions.

Here is a list of situations for which deep tissue massage is not a good idea:

• taking blood thinner pills should not be combined with deep tissue massages;
• having a bleeding disorder;
• having cancer/osteoporosis or receiving chemotherapy;
• having blood clots or a clotting disorder.

Pregnant women should also wait until they have given birth and fully recovered from it before doing deep tissue massages. However, Swedish massage or European massage services are still a possibility for women in such a condition, which is why you should book a session with a massage therapist that is capable of providing you with a relaxing massage with a milder level of pressure on your connective tissue than is still capable of helping you cope with chronic muscle tension.
