Deep Tissue Sculpting
Deep Tissue Sculpting is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Sculpting is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to insure a proper level of comfort. Keep in mind that this form of bodywork tends to release toxins from the tissues that can resettle and cause soreness after the treatment. Plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins.
