Deep Tissue Massage In Cusco
Deep tissue massage helps to relieve pain in specific areas. Deep pressures, depending on what your needs and the condition of the muscles, are used. This deeply relaxing massage is ideal for anyone who needs to relieve stress or after a long hike. The massage helps to break up and eliminate scar tissue. Deep tissue massage usually focuses on specific areas and can cause some pain during or after the massage. However, if the therapy massage is done correctly, as a result, you should feel better than ever in one or two days.
One of the key benefits of deep tissue massage is its ability to break down and eliminate scar tissue. Scar tissue can form as a result of injury, overuse, or repetitive motion, leading to stiffness and pain in the affected area. By focusing on deep layers of muscle tissue, the therapist can effectively target and release this scar tissue, helping to improve flexibility and reduce discomfort.
This type of massage typically focuses on specific areas of the body, such as the back, shoulders, or neck, where tension and tightness tend to accumulate. While the massage may cause some discomfort during or immediately after the session—especially in areas with significant muscle knots—the relief that follows is often profound. With the right technique and pressure, you should begin to feel better within one to two days, as your muscles begin to relax and recover.
In this kind of massage, it is very important to keep firm pressure on the muscle. The pressure will be applied according to the body’s conditions
Our deep tissue techniques are specifically targeted to release persistent muscle tension, offering long-term relief by addressing the root causes of discomfort and muscle stiffness.
What to Expect
During a deep tissue massage, the therapist will:
- Begin with lighter pressure to warm up the muscles.
- Gradually apply more pressure, targeting specific areas with hands, knuckles, or even elbows for maximum relief.
- Focus on problem areas such as the neck, shoulders, lower back, and legs, often using techniques like friction and kneading to loosen muscle fibers.
Aftercare Tips
After a deep tissue session, you may experience some soreness, similar to a workout. Hydrating well and stretching lightly can reduce muscle stiffness and enhance the effects of the massage. It’s also best to avoid strenuous activity for the rest of the day to maximize recovery.
