What is Vente deep tissue and fascial massage? What differentiates us? What exactly are our treatment pillars?
How do you explain deep tissue massage?
- A more aggressive style of massage
- At times it can be uncomfortable to downright excruciating
- The philosophy is that the depth can access tissues that are difficult to access relative to lighter techniques
- The aggression can help relax stubborn long-standing tightness
- Heavily treatment based versus relaxation massage
Specific and Targeted
Deep tissue massage is more than deep and aggressive treatment. With Vente deep tissue and fascial massage it is more nuanced.
Treatment outcomes can be a matter of a few millimeters, a slight angular change and the amount of pressure exerted. This is literally what can make or break a treatment.
When I was a younger therapist I used brute strength to help release the muscles. These days the techniques that are used are very specific and accurate. There is more precision when utilizing these techniques.
When you are on the most precise location, there are generally better treatment outcomes. This seems very obvious. You will be able to tell the difference between a therapist who is more precise. It is noticeable compared to one who is only close to the exact location needing treatment. As one famous wrestler put it, “and that’s the bottom line!”
Separation of fascia and muscles
With Vente deep tissue and fascial massage, there is a separation of treating the fascia and muscles. What does this mean?
Generally in rehab there is zero separation between muscles and fascia. You treat one, you also treat the other. Although, this is true, this lacks the full picture.
At times a condition can be a result of “mostly” the fascia being affected versus “just” the muscles. A good example of this is when a patient has chronic lower back issues. A therapist can dig deep into the lower back to try to release the back muscles. At times, the back can be almost impossible to relax. Typically, this patient will have fascial restrictions causing or exacerbating their condition.
In this scenario the individual has more of an issue with the fascia versus the muscles. In this instance, there will be more time spent on using techniques to release the fascia. In fact, in this common case, when the fascia is released, the muscles of the back are more easily accessible. This results in a more pronounced relaxation of the muscles.
Sequencing of treatment techniques
Vente deep tissue and fascial massage can be sequenced. What does this mean? At times, you have to do a particular technique first. Then, use the actual technique to get the response you are seeking.
A prime example is when a person sprains their ankle and they have swelling. There are techniques that can help decrease the swelling. In some cases the fascia can become so tight that it can restrict the flow of fluid. The goal is to ultimately decrease the swelling but in order to do that, the fascia needs to be addressed.
The fascia is released first before the swelling techniques are used. This is to maximize the effect of decreasing the swelling by removing any hindrances to the swelling techniques.
There is one more pillar. Actually, there is one more plus a bonus. Watch the video to find out what the last pillar is and the bonus pillar.
