What a Deep Tissue massage REALLY Is?
The Healing Place of Cottage Grove

It isn’t 60 minutes of muscle-pounding, pain-inducing, steamrolling hell. It is a Swedish massage with deep work on specific areas. Many clients don’t understand that 'deep' can be accomplished with more strategy and less brawn! Therapists can use core strength and intention to make a deep impact without beating someone up.
"Most of the bodywork I do is deep but my initial approach to the body was quite gentle. It was like peeling away the layers of an onion. There is no way to touch the core until you move the layers around the core. The body is smart! If you push it too hard, it pushes right back. My clients would identify their issue and I went to work. Sometimes it could be addressed in one session. Other times, it took many sessions.
Honestly, if a client felt that his/her money’s worth could only be measured by the pain I could inflict… rarely would I work on that client again. Not only is there something wrong with that mentality, it is also dangerous.
So with that said - Massage doesn't have to hurt to be beneficial!
"That’s the whole story!!!"
