Get answers to common questions about Deep Tissue Massage - 60 Minute.

You’ll experience firm, slow strokes and focused pressure on tight areas. Therapists communicate intensity, adjusting to comfort. Sessions include assessment, treatment, and brief dressing time. Mild soreness can occur; typically subsides within 24–48 hours and leads to lasting tension relief.

Some pressure and transient discomfort are normal, especially over knotted muscles. Therapists ask for feedback and can modify intensity. Pain should not be sharp or unbearable; if it is, communicate immediately so pressure and technique can be adjusted for safe, effective results.

Arrive hydrated, avoid heavy meals beforehand, and wear comfortable clothing. Inform your therapist about injuries, medications, or health conditions. Arrive a few minutes early to complete intake forms so the full 60 minutes (including dressing time) focuses on treatment and recovery.

People with blood clotting disorders, recent fractures, open wounds, uncontrolled hypertension, or infectious skin conditions should avoid deep tissue work. Pregnant clients beyond the first trimester should consult their physician. Contact us to discuss medical concerns before booking.

Frequency depends on your condition and goals. For chronic tension, weekly or biweekly sessions initially are common, then monthly maintenance. Your therapist will recommend a tailored plan based on progress, pain levels, and lifestyle to achieve optimal results.

Drink plenty of water, rest, and apply heat to soothe muscles if needed. Avoid intense exercise for 24 hours. Gentle stretching and light activity help prolong benefits. Contact us if unusual pain, swelling, or persistent discomfort occurs.
