Deep tissue massage vs myofascial release — what is the difference, and which treatment is better for pain, stiffness, posture problems, or injury recovery?
In this video, Emily Erisman, Registered Massage Therapist at Rutherford Physiotherapy, explains how these two massage therapy techniques work and when each one may be recommended.
Deep tissue massage uses slow, firm pressure to target deeper muscle layers. It may help with chronic muscle tension, stiffness, adhesions, reduced mobility, and recovery from injuries.
Myofascial release focuses on the fascia, the connective tissue surrounding your muscles. This gentler technique may help with long-term tightness, posture-related discomfort, restricted movement, and recovery after surgery or trauma.
In this video, you’ll learn:
✔ The difference between deep tissue massage and myofascial release
✔ Which treatment may help chronic pain and muscle stiffness
✔ How fascia can affect movement and discomfort
✔ Whether deep tissue massage should hurt
✔ How often massage therapy may be recommended
✔ Why combining both techniques may provide better results
At Rutherford Physiotherapy, massage therapy sessions are personalized to your symptoms, comfort level, and recovery goals.
