Dealing with stubborn muscle tension, sore spots, or limited mobility? Our deep tissue massage therapy is designed to reach the deeper layers of muscle and fascia to break down tightness, release pressure, and get you moving better. Available 7 days a week in Round Rock.
Deep tissue massage is a focused and therapeutic technique that targets the inner layers of muscle and connective tissue. It is designed to help with persistent pain, muscle tightness, and limited mobility caused by stress, repetitive strain, or physical activity.
Unlike surface-level massage, deep tissue work applies steady and firm pressure to break up adhesions, improve blood flow, and restore natural movement. It is especially effective for athletes, people with physically demanding jobs, or anyone dealing with chronic discomfort in the neck, shoulders, back, or legs.
At Mays Street Massage, our deep tissue massage therapy is built around results. Whether you are working through an old injury or just tired of recurring muscle pain, this massage service can help release what your body has been holding on to.
Deep tissue massage is methodical and focused. It begins with a quick conversation to understand where your pain or tightness is coming from, whether it is old injuries, poor posture, or everyday wear and tear.
Once the session begins, your therapist uses slow, steady strokes and firm pressure to reach the deep muscle layers and surrounding fascia. These techniques work to break down adhesions, flush out tension, and release pressure from trigger points that limit your movement or cause discomfort.
Unlike a general massage that only aims to relax, deep tissue massage is designed to improve function, restore mobility, and help your body recover from what it has been holding for too long. Sessions are available in 30, 60, and 90 minute formats based on your specific needs.
Deep tissue massage is not about a gentle escape. It is a structured therapy for people who want relief from real physical discomfort and tension that will not go away on its own. Whether you are dealing with lingering injuries, recurring tightness, or daily stress that sits deep in your muscles, this massage offers real benefits that last.
Deep pressure helps to physically break up rigid areas in muscles and fascia, especially around old injuries. This improves healing and reduces long term stiffness or discomfort.
Stimulating deeper layers of tissue encourages better circulation. This helps with faster recovery, reduced fatigue, and healthier muscles over time.
By applying direct pressure to trigger points, deep tissue massage can ease pain that travels to other areas — like tension headaches that start in the shoulders or back pain that stems from hip tightness.
The slow, intentional pressure calms the nervous system and supports reduction of localized inflammation caused by overuse or strain.
As tight muscle groups begin to release, posture improves and movement becomes easier. This is especially helpful for clients with desk jobs, active lifestyles, or previous injuries.
Deep tissue massage therapy is not a quick fix. But for clients who want to move better, feel stronger, and get back to their routine without pain holding them back — it works.
At Mays Street Massage, deep tissue massage is not just a service on a list. It is something we take seriously because we understand the difference it can make for people living with daily pain or physical limitations.
Our two licensed massage therapists bring over ten years of combined experience, working with clients who deal with everything from sports injuries and postural imbalances to chronic back, neck, and shoulder tension. Every session is focused, professional, and designed to make progress you can feel.
We listen before we begin. We work with purpose. And we are committed to helping every client walk out of our studio feeling more at ease and more in control of their body.
Located in Round Rock and open seven days a week, we make it easy to get the relief you need without the long wait or impersonal setting.
Deep tissue massage can feel intense, especially in tight or injured areas, but it should not be painful. Some discomfort is normal during the session, and mild soreness afterward is common. Always let your therapist know what pressure feels right for you.
Drink plenty of water, avoid heavy workouts for the rest of the day, and give your body time to recover. Some people feel tired, while others feel more energized. Light movement or stretching can also help ease any lingering soreness.
For chronic tension or pain, weekly or biweekly sessions may be helpful at first. Once your condition improves, a monthly session can help maintain long term results. Your therapist can recommend a schedule based on how your body responds.
Yes. By releasing tight muscles in the shoulders, neck, back, and hips, deep tissue massage can improve alignment and posture over time. It is especially helpful for people with desk jobs or repetitive physical stress.
This type of massage is not recommended for people with certain conditions like severe osteoporosis, recent surgeries, or active blood clots. If you have a medical concern, consult your doctor before booking. We will also review your intake form to ensure deep tissue therapy is a safe fit.
