Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about 90- Mins Deep Tissue Massage.

During a 90-minute deep tissue massage, therapists apply firm, focused pressure to deeper muscle layers. You may feel intense release, warmth, or mild soreness afterward. Sessions are personalized, include communication about pressure, and end with guidance for aftercare to support recovery.

Deep tissue work uses firm pressure and can cause temporary discomfort as knots release. Therapists adjust pressure to your tolerance and communicate throughout. Mild soreness for 24–48 hours is normal; let your therapist know immediately if pain is sharp or unbearable.

Arrive hydrated, eat lightly, and wear comfortable clothing. Avoid heavy exercise right before your session. Share medical history, pain areas, and pressure preferences with your therapist. Arriving a few minutes early ensures time to complete intake forms and relax before treatment.

Clients with recent surgeries, fractures, deep vein thrombosis, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or certain skin conditions should avoid deep tissue until cleared by a physician. Pregnant clients and those with bleeding disorders should consult their doctor and inform the therapist before booking.

Frequency depends on your goals and condition. For chronic tension, every 1–3 weeks initially may be advised, then monthly maintenance. Athletic or rehabilitation plans vary; your therapist will recommend scheduling based on progress and response to treatment.

Drink plenty of water, rest, and apply heat or gentle stretching to support muscle recovery. Avoid intense workouts the same day. Use ice for persistent soreness and contact us if you experience unusual pain, swelling, or prolonged discomfort.
