Sports Massage or Deep Tissue Massage is a form of soft tissue mobilisation and manipulation, which uses a variety of techniques to target the deeper layers of muscle and fascia within the body.
It’s an intense, hands-on treatment, delivered with firm pressure, compression, and slow forceful strokes.
