Question of the Week:
Does Deep Tissue Massage Have to Hurt?

Short answer: no.

Effective deep tissue work should feel deeply satisfying, but not overwhelming. When the pressure is too much, the nervous system braces and the muscles often resist releasing.

Working with the nervous system, and at the right depth rather than forcing maximum pressure tends to produce better, longer-lasting results.

Valentine’s Day is sneaking up on us, but I have a foolproof plan to make it perfect:

Start with a bouquet of flowers, add box of chocolates, and top it off with an Athena Bodywork e-Gift Card waiting in their inbox the morning of.

You just nailed Valentine’s Day.
