One of the most common questions I'm asked is, 'what's the difference?'. Whether it be between a sports massage and a Thai massage or a deep tissue vs a sports massage, or all three. They all sound and look similar, but there are actually a few differences 👇.
THAI MASSAGE - They aim to improve flexibility, reduce stress, and promote overall well-being. Thai massages can include stretching, yoga-like postures, and pressing on energy points.
DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE - Focuses on the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. It can help with chronic pain, muscle tension, and injuries. Deep tissue massages can also help break up scar tissue, reduce inflammation, and improve circulation.
SPORTS MASSAGE - Focuses on the musculoskeletal system and can help with injury healing and prevention. It can also help relieve pain, stress, and anxiety, and improve circulation.
