Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is a kind of massage that primarily concentrates on the deeper muscle layers as well as connective tissue. It relieves you of chronic muscle tension and also helps you to get rid of scar tissue. It is also referred to as Deep Tissue Massage.
It is interesting to note that the Greeks, the Egyptians and the people of the Far Eastern region were the first to use this massage technique. The techniques used by this massage are quite similar to the Swedish massage.
Therese Phimmer, a physiotherapist of Canada, is the founder of the principles of this massage. She used her own creative idea and came up with this massage therapy to treat her paralysis of legs. After continuing with this massage for three months, she was able to reverse the paralysis.
To cure patients suffering from paralysis, she established the 'Deep Tissue Therapy Clinic' in the year 1949. She also wrote a book, known as 'Muscles-Your Invisible Bonds'.
