Reasons To Get A Deep Tissue Massage
Are you someone who weight trains, cycles, runs or cross fit regularly but seldom, if at all, gets a massage? You are doing your body, and your workouts, a disservice. Anyone who puts a physical demand on their body 4 or more times a week should include a deep tissue massage into their recovery routine. Where you are running in Cameron Park in Waco or Kayaking Lake Waco, or training at one of the many gyms in Waco. Deep Tissue Massage needs to part of your recovery.
The benefits of regular massage are many but, most people don’t allow enough time for each massage session, especially if that massage is for deep tissue. A deep tissue massage is a longer process of getting the muscles to relax so the massage therapist can get to the lower layer of connective tissue. It involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury, and reduce muscle tension. Remember when you use your muscles and you are sore the next day that soreness caused by localized inflammation and micro tears in the muscle fibers. Your bi-weekly massage really should be 60 to 90 minutes long.
