What is soft tissue therapy?
Soft tissue therapy focuses on treating muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia—the connective tissues that support movement. It helps reduce tension, break up scar tissue, and improve mobility.
How is it different from massage?
While both can feel similar, soft tissue therapy is more targeted and clinically focused. It’s often used to treat specific areas of dysfunction, pain, or injury rather than just providing relaxation.
What conditions can soft tissue work help with? Soft tissue therapy can be effective for:
● Muscle tightness or knots
● Tendinitis or tendinopathy
● Sports injuries
● Chronic tension
● Limited range of motion
● Headaches and jaw pain
● Low back, shoulder, and neck pain
Does soft tissue work hurt? You might feel some pressure or mild discomfort, especially in areas that are tight or inflamed. Most patients describe it as a “hurts so good” feeling, and we always adjust our pressure based on your comfort.
