Evolved's massage therapist have been practicing massage for 7 to 15 years! All are highly trained in Deep Tissue to release muscles that have become sore, painful, tight, tense or restricted. If you are looking for a particular style, please call or email so we can recommend the best therapist. 

 

Deep Tissue is a result-focused massage, reaching deep muscles that may be causing pain, tension, restriction of movement or other problems. Expect the pressure to start off moderate-firm to loosen superficial (close to top of skin) muscles first. Once deeper muscles can be assessed, pressure may be increased to focus in on tight muscles. At times, the therapist may hold still on a muscle for 30-60 seconds to allow a stubborn area to relax fully. It's not because the therapist is lazy, sometimes it takes that long for stuck spots to respond.

​

Deep tissue sessions often are focused and may not include massage to the whole body. A 60-minute Deep Tissue usually has time for 1-2 focus areas, if the client wants the rest of body also massaged. A 90-minute massage usually has time for 2-3 focus areas and time for the rest of the body. 

​

Therapeutic Deep Tissue massage should not be overly painful nor leave you sore for days after. A good hurt is usually beneficial but if the pain of the massage causes you to yell out, brace against the therapist, or hold your breath that means you need to let your therapist know. Our therapists will not push their bodies to injury for demands of firmer pressure for liability reasons.
