What is Deep Tissue Massage?
Deep tissue massage is a targeted, therapeutic technique designed to realign the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. At The Broad Street Practice in Stamford, our expert therapists use deep tissue massage to treat chronic pain, muscle tension, and postural issues.
This method is especially effective for conditions like chronic back pain, neck stiffness, tight leg muscles, and shoulder tension. By using slow, deep strokes and firm pressure, deep tissue massage breaks down adhesions (muscle "knots") to relieve pain, improve movement, and restore physical function.
Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing stress, or dealing with long-term muscular discomfort, deep tissue massage offers a powerful path to healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Deep tissue massage uses slower strokes and firmer, more focused pressure to reach the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. A regular relaxation massage works mainly on the surface muscles, whereas deep tissue massage is designed to release long standing knots and tension that a lighter touch cannot always reach.
Our therapists commonly use deep tissue massage to help with chronic back pain, neck stiffness, tight leg muscles and shoulder tension. It can also support recovery from injury and help manage the muscular effects of stress.
You may feel some pressure or mild discomfort while your therapist works on tight or knotted areas, especially in the first session. Most people find the sensation manageable and the results, including reduced tension and better movement, well worth it. Always let your therapist know if the pressure feels too intense so they can adjust.
This depends on what you are treating. For chronic tension or an ongoing issue, our therapists often suggest a series of sessions spaced a week or two apart, then moving to a maintenance schedule once things improve. We will talk you through a plan that suits your body and your goals at your first appointment.
