Therapeutic Thai Deep Tissue Massage

This is one of my specialities. It's a focused massage for tight backs, stiff shoulders and stubborn muscular tension, and a good choice after long hours at a desk or physical work, or whenever your muscles need extra attention. The aim is for you to leave feeling looser, more comfortable and able to move more easily.

What your massage involves

I use my own blend of therapeutic work, traditional Thai techniques and assisted stretching. Depending on the area, I may use my hands, elbows, knees or feet to apply pressure, with walking techniques where appropriate. I work slowly and steadily into tight areas rather than rushing, so your muscles have time to let go.

We'll agree which areas need attention and the pressure you prefer. You can ask me to adjust it at any time. Deep massage should never mean putting up with pain.

Tiger Balm and warm stones can be used on particular areas for soothing warmth, at no extra charge. Both are optional. Please tell me about any sensitivities or preferences beforehand.

Walking techniques are only used for clients up to 150kg. Above that, I can still provide firm pressure without them, within my general client weight limit of 200kg.

Help with muscular discomfort

The aim is relief from associated muscular tension and discomfort, not treatment or a cure for the underlying condition. Please tell me about your symptoms and any advice you've been given before booking.

Sciatica

Massage may help ease muscular tension and discomfort accompanying sciatica.

Frozen shoulder

Gentle work around the shoulder focuses on easing tension in the surrounding muscles, within your comfortable range of movement.

Tennis elbow

Massage may help ease tension and aching in the forearm muscles around the affected elbow.

Healed scar tissue

I also work on healed scar tissue. Once an area has fully healed, massage can help soften scar tissue and improve its flexibility.

How is this different from Thai Sports Massage?

Deep Tissue focuses on persistent muscular tension. Thai Sports uses similar techniques with training, recovery and physical activity in mind. If you're unsure, I'll help you choose.
