    Please noted: With a deep tissue massage, it is quite normal to feel mildly bruised and soreness. In most people, this is often within two to three days after the massage.

    It’s normal to feel sore after a massage. The technique carries blood and nutrients to your muscles while eliminating toxins. After stimulating muscles that you may not usually use, you might experience delayed onset muscle soreness. This is a physical response to the inflammation as your body heals.

    You may experience inflammation and soreness in areas that need healing. If you have neck pain after a massage, for example, it can be a sign that you carry a lot of tension in that area. You may have limited flexibility and mobility in your neck due to working at a desk or bending forward repeatedly.

    If you haven’t had a massage recently or if it’s your first one, it’s more likely that you will feel sore afterward. Your body will create muscle memory if you have frequent massages, so aim to be regular with your sessions when possible.

    This form of massage therapy aims at the deeper tissues structure of the muscle and fascia (connective tissue). Unlike the other form of massage, in this form, the pressure will generally be more intense.

    Bruising after a deep tissues massage is the same to soreness one experiences when you start back into exercise and slightly over do it. After some time, the muscles get better. You will feel looser, rejuvenated and energetic.

    Bruises are common in contact sports. Though rare, anyone can get a bruise after a massage.
    please do not hesitate to contact us if you have got bad bruises and sore longer than a week after received our treatment.
