What is East-Asian Deep Muscle Massage?
East Asian Deep Muscle Massage, focuses on the deeper layers
of muscle tissue. These techniques in the hands of a Master do not inflict pain. Pain
is caused when an inexperienced MT tries to work too quickly (before the muscles are properly warmed up.
The key to a proper Deep Tissue Massage is "the deeper I go...the slower the stroke is", and taking the time
to work one layer of muscle at a time. My 2-hour sessions enable me to do this!
Combined with the use of Japanese Hot Stone Therapy this modality thoroughly warms
up the muscles which prepares them for the deeper strokes. The stones allow the therapist to work much more deeply than
what he could do with the bare hand alone, and the heat penetrates deeply into the muscles for the use of forearm and elbow
techniques.
Long slow strokes and firm pressure along the length of muscle releases muscles and allows
them to move freely. Friction across the grain of muscle tendon reduces adhesions. Deep manipulation of specific muscle groups
decreases acute or chronic pains and tension of the body.
