With any of our aesthetic treatments, a consultation is required so the aesthetic doctor can assess what the client needs perfectly. This recommendation is communicated to the patient and if the treatment is done, the consultation fee would be waived and only the service fee is charged.
Discover the Benefits of Elevist's Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is a type of massage therapy that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue in the body. This type of massage uses slow, firm strokes and deep pressure to help release tension and relieve pain. Deep tissue massage can be beneficial for individuals who suffer from chronic pain, limited mobility, and tension in the muscles.
Research has shown that deep tissue massage can be effective in reducing chronic low back pain (1), improving range of motion in patients with frozen shoulder syndrome (2), and reducing muscle soreness after exercise (3). Additionally, a study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine found that deep tissue massage can lower blood pressure and heart rate in individuals with hypertension (4).
It is important to note that deep tissue massage may not be suitable for everyone, as it can be uncomfortable or painful for some individuals. It is recommended that individuals consult with a qualified massage therapist before undergoing deep tissue massage to determine if it is appropriate for their needs.
