What Is Deep Tissue Massage in Ottawa ON?

Similar to Swedish massage, Deep Tissue Massage is used to relax the entire body but it is used on the deeper muscle tissue with deeper pressure. Along with the deep muscle tissue, the tendons and fascia will be worked on as well. The fascia consists of fibrous tissue and is the connective and protective layer around the joints.

There was a study that found after just one Deep Tissue massage, blood pressure would fall from 40 minutes to one hour. A Psychiatry journal discovered following a massage therapy like Deep Tissue massage actively reduces the number of cortisol levels. On the other hand, they also found there was a release of oxytocin and serotonin. These hormones increase mood and help with relaxation.
