Deep tissue massage Deep tissue massage uses more pressure than Swedish massage. This is a good choice for people with chronic muscle problems such as soreness, injury or imbalance. Deep tissue massage helps relieve muscle tension, chronic muscle pain and anxiety.

For general tune-ups, consider scheduling a massage every four to six weeks. If you have a chronic condition or specific areas of strain and tension, consider scheduling a message every one to three weeks. If you're still unsure how often to get a massage, consider scheduling a consultation appointment.
